So, essentially, all that upgrading UC and a million other schools have done with their facilities . . . is now obsolete?
That’s a stretch, sure. A big one. The Bearcats badly needed the Lindner Center, the Sheakley Athletics Center and a redone Nippert and Fifth Third. But if a big goal is to woo football players . . . if they knew then what we know now, how might the massive dollars been re-apportioned?
That’s why NFL weight rooms don’t look like Oklahoma’s weight room. When the league wants to impress a free agent, it throws money directly.
So if you’re a striving, aspirational football program such as UC’s – without the tall cash piles of some of your peers -- how do you pivot to deal with this new and dizzying sea change?
