It's more complicated than how must of us are told to think these days. In addition, there were two different administrations during all of this. I've read what you have written throughout. It's the administrations fault. Failure to properly repair the building or provide the necessary information to the people that use the building falls on the administration alone. Yes, I know the administration has changed somewhat recently so its both their faults. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Energy Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 How anyone can somehow imply the administration is not clearly at fault here is crazy. If the current AD has been in the role for more than 2 years (I’m being generous) then the AD would have to be obtuse to not be aware of the issue. And if the AD did not raise holy hell to get this fixed, well, the AD carries significant blame. Does the prior AD deserve blame? Sounds like it but not sure of timing and what was attempted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I can't help but wonder why the building inspectors, less than ten years ago, approved of the millions of dollars in renovations when this was apparently so "obvious. " Bottom line is that no one saw it being condemned until just recently when it was deemed as such. No one hid anything. Owner of over two decades of the most dangerous words on the internet!

Ban Basketball Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 I've also never said, but I'm personally happy with them moving into the McLeod Center for a few reasons. It's a win for the school too, as the West Gym was a sellout for nearly every meet, and the McLeod Center gives them an extra 3,000+ seats and tickets to sell.

It usually is. Fair enough. But hard to see how those in charge aren’t culpable. Feel free to shed deeper light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are pros and cons to providing an extra 3,000 seats, the West Gym atmosphere of being a packed house and having the wrestlers in a small heated environment really seemed to give UNI a home mat advantage. The big question is whether UNI will be able to fill those extra 3,000 seats. As an outsider looking in it's been awesome to see Schwab have success and hope for continued success but this seems to be a hurdle that no Division 1 coach should have to balance with the rest of their duties. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just about filled it with last year's Iowa State meet. Purely for selfish reasons, but I hated how packed the West Gym got, and worst of all, I'd have to get in my seat an hour before meets started just to get the seat I wanted. I grew tired of it I kind of thought the Schwab bandwagon deal would die off but no, no it hasn't. Last season was AWESOME having elbow room and getting the twenty minutes before! 1 Owner of over two decades of the most dangerous words on the internet!
