November 25, 200817 yr http://news.cincinnati.com/article/20081124/SPT0101/811240367/1064 Is Kelly milking the TN rumors. After the game Saturday, he talked about how the UC program is on the right track, but there are things that still have to be done (i.e. the practice facility, salary, etc...) He told Cutler that he would not entertain talks with TN until the season was over, thus saying is interested. IMO, the TN talk, whether legit or not gives Kelly a tremendous advantage with negotiations with UC. But, if TN goes a different direction and it's announced within the next few weeks, does UC reneg on things like the practice facility and others?

November 25, 200817 yr In order to have the practice facility by next year, wouldn't they have already had to start it? No. The project is only scheduled to take a few months and could be taken care of in the spring and early summer. The deadline is December 09...

November 25, 200817 yr Author No. The project is only scheduled to take a few months and could be taken care of in the spring and early summer. The deadline is December 09... Not necessarily. I'm assuming that there is no excavation work that needs to be done?
November 25, 200817 yr I'm assuming that there is no excavation work that needs to be done? Only need to remove one hill and a parking lot...
