Don't laugh folks, the Lindners may be "calling in" a special favor for all the millions they have given UC.
Seems that architects are at UC now, trying to figure if Nippert could be converted into a MLS Stadium. This is not a rumor, but the truth. The Linders want this option on the table, along with the idea of building a new stadium in OTR, Newport, or Oakley. The Lindners are spending $50K for this current study on the conversion, so you know they are serious about this as an option.
While a new MSL stadium would cost $200 million, Nippert could be converted for $100 million or less. To make this happen, The Ohio Legislature would have to OK the sale of the stadium. UC gets $100 million in cash, but UC Football becomes a tenant in the "new" modified stadium, and the name will be changed.
I didn't donate several hundred dollars three years ago for the Nippert expansion for UC to then sell the stadium to an outside entity. The decision will be made in the next 90 days. Can't wait for UC FB to be playing in "United Dairy Farmers Stadium". If this should happen, I have been to my last UC FB game.
Mike Bohn, please make up for the giant blunder you made extending Coach TT, by showing some common sense here, by telling them, NO WAY!
