1) The athletic department budget has expanded exponentially under Alden. True, part of this is due to some accounting practices, but he has made a big commitment to making Missouri a player across the board. 2) Elevation of department expectations. Alden has made good hires and placed good coaches in wrestling, gymnastics, women's volleyball, softball and retained a good baseball coach. 3) Facilities upgrades (enormous improvements across the board in this area)

You mean you don't look to a man who's marriage crumbled after he had an affair with an intern when you need advice on loyalty?

Regardless, I believe that it drives 100% of his venom. Somehow, he's got it in his head that Mizzou fans think they're "better" than everyone else because we have a (rumored) SEC invite. I have no doubt the "idiot" portion of our fanbase is thumping their chest, but I would suggest that to be the exception and not the rule (at least in the circles I run in). I would describe the mood amongst my Mizzou bretheren as "grateful" and "relieved" as opposed to "cocky". I have some ksu friends and co-workers that go from zero to cocky every year when they when 2 sequential football games. I certainly don't project their tendancies to the fan base as a whole. |

Yeah. It's nuts, but it's over 30 years. Sweet pics if you follow the link.
http://www.fayettevilleflyer.com/201...s-master-plan/ University of Arkansas Athletic Director and Vice Chancellor Jeff Long outlined a plan for major upgrades to the UA’s athletic facilities at a press conference held at the Broyles Athletic Center on Tuesday. Long said that while specific details within the newly unveiled Athletic Facilities Master Plan are tentative for now, the plan itself is designed to guide and address facilities needs at the UA for years to come. “We have an obligation to plan for the future and the Athletic Facilities Master Plan enables us to move forward in the best interests of meeting the needs of our student-athletes, coaches, donors and fans,” he said. “The plan is an ambitious wish list to address facility needs for all 19 of our sports over the next five, 15 and 30 years. It is the next step to build our program and maintain competitiveness in the Southeastern Conference and nationally.” Back in February, the University of Arkansas Board of Trustees approved the commission of the plan, developed by an architect team including Populous, Modus Studio and University Facilities Management. Long stressed that none of the facilities included in the plan are final at this point, and that timeline and priority for the individual projects have also not been determined. “The master plan was developed in coordination with the overall Campus Growth Plan,” he said. “Before any new project is started, we will present plans to the Board of Trustees for approval.” One project, however, that has already been approved by the Board of Trustees is the recently announced football operations center. Long reminded those in attendance on Tuesday that groundbreaking for the Football Center is set for Nov. 4 at 3 p.m., the day before the Arkansas-South Carolina football game in Fayetteville. Long also let slip plans other plans for improvements, including a new video board for Reynolds Razorback Stadium to be installed as soon as 2012. The entire plan has an estimated price-tag of between $286.8 and $327.85 million, a figure that Long feels can be raised. “To put this into context, I think it’s important to look at our history. Over the last 11 years we’ve averaged about $18 million (per year) on renovations and new facilities,” he said. “If you take that out over 11 years, it’s nearly $200 million. When you project $320 million over 30 years, it’s about 11 million. If you project it over a more ambition 20 years, it’s about 16 million.” Long said that funds for the project will come from the usual sources. “We will certainly rely on the generosity of our supporters through major gifts,” he said. “We’ll rely on the Razorback Foundation funds that are contributed to our program. We will rely on the revenues of ticket sales, multimedia sponsorship agreements, SEC Television revenue distribution, and we will certainly utilize bonds, proceeds supported by athletic revenues.”

Any truth to the rumor that they are also planning a $200,000,000 indoor noodling facility?

One can only imagine what some of these guys would be like if they had an actual winning program (excluding Deez and KCMizzou).

A source with connections to television executives involved in broadcasting college football in multiple BCS conferences has further confirmed what PowerMizzou.com reported earlier in the week. The source said Missouri's move to the SEC was "as done as done can be without the official vote." The source further stated that the vote, as reported earlier in the week by the Times, is not expected to be a hurdle.
