C'mon Mug, the Spartans need the extra $200k.  It'll be the final push that'll get the North Endzone Project going in Spartan Stadium :P

 

We’re getting $1.45 million. So SJSU is getting an extra 50k, hopefully it helps with their NEZ project.

That we only get $225,000 to play in Orlando against USF is turrible for the program. UC Davis drives two hours over the hill and is getting $375,000.

The USF game was negotiated nearly a decade ago....

Uh oh!  Only $50k more?  Not sure this is enough to purchase the groundbreaking ceremony shovels.  Reportedly, this is the only thing holding up the NEZ project.  True story.

I see a few more years of fundraising to overcome this key shortfall.

Plus it was a home and home, the payouts are much different for this.

 

That USF loss still haunts me, that was the beginning of the end for Ault. We could've been ranked if we would've won that game.

They'd be better off cancelling the contract, eating the cost, and finding another road game.

Yeah you guys will actually lose money in that game after all the expenses.  

We had that same scenario against someone a couple years ago.  I can't remember against who, but like Mug said, it was negotiated many years prior.

We can't all be as lucky as you guys, with your beautiful modern looking stadium.... #nomoneyneeded

Nobody ever said our stadium was great.

Actually the ped state stadium is pretty crappy.  It's huge, and it's loud because of the aluminum bleacher seats, but it's pretty unimpressive compared to many. It's a giant erector set that clearly started out in the 40K range with multiple expansions slapped onto it with little thought other than increasing seating. Mackay looks like Ohio Stadium or the Rose Bowl in comparison.

I'm looking forward to a new head coach who isn't a cud-chewing autistic retard.

Need to plan an NEZ project yourselves then..... you too can lack funding for it and scrap it after 5 years, but, false hope goes far. I was on pins and needles for 5 years just waiting for the announcement-was exciting times. Now what to look forward to:  Cincy and the Tedford Train writing something ridiculously juvenile? just not the same.

Remember though South Florida is the second game of a home and home series that was pushed back twice. My understanding is the money is lower also for home and home series instead one check for one game situation.
