i asked what role bronco athletics will play and did not get a reply.

it would appear that this will entirely be a rec center, which means our basketball and volleyball teams continue to play in ancient facilities, on bleachers that soon will collapse like the football stadium did.


this may appear to be a good deal for some students but a lousy one for the university. the reason why san bernadino and bakersfield have moved ahead so swiftly even though they are far younger universities is partly due to their outstanding arenas that bring in big crowds and great athletes.

good coaching can only hang on for so long and then the university reputation begins to slide further.

students should ask why the plan is not an arena like the yotes have rather than a glorified barn for intramurals.
