It's really cool to have a feature article in one of the major papers. I sent Rosenberg an email thanking him.

Indeed. A LOT of good stuff no one has mentioned.

1). $60K extra for assistant coaches salary pool.

2). a "bubble" for bad weather practice.

3). Jim Stapleton's background. Regent Stapleton was a good choice to lead the Board's efforts to land a HC like English.

Good stuff!!

Bring on the bubble. Can't they have one inflated in the next few weeks???

Great EMU press. Lets get that bubble this year!!!

I want to see the plan first.

I'm not saying to give up on the new indoor complex. That to me is the only long term solution....but the bubble would be a great temporary measure.

I've never seen a bubble (well, this kind of bubble).

What does it look like?

Any university have one?

If you drive down US23 for about 10 miles and look to the left you will see one it is an indoor driving range for golf.

A number of large schools have indoor bubble facilities, including U of Iowa and U of Colorado:

The bubble at Iowa is over 23 years old, so this could be more than a short term solution given the tough economic climate.
