Hello Aggie Nation,
Scott Barnes here.
-
Wanted to just,
stay in touch with you and let you know
-
how excited we are about our fall
sports.
-
They're competing at a very high level
-
in this inaugural season
in the Mountain West.
-
And thank you for your attendance
at soccer, volleyball and football.
-
As you know, football has,
set some records in terms of season ticket
-
base over 10,000 now, as well as back
to back to back, capacity crowds.
-
So, thank you for that.
-
We appreciate that and are excited
that we have some more
-
home games left in this
fall sports season coming up.
-
So we hope to see you back there.
-
I'd like to take the opportunity as well
to maybe squelch,
-
a rumor or two and as well,
tell you about, some future planning.
-
There's been talk about,
potential funding and,
-
commencement of stadium renovations
at Romney Stadium...
-
That is not true.
-
But I will tell you this,
that as we look to the future and
-
look at our vision statement for football,
understanding that we want to be,
-
Uh...
at the top of the mountain West
-
and beyond,
we do need to address stadium renovations.
-
At this point, what we have done
is contracted with CSL, to help us conduct
-
a feasibility study to determine
the potential for stadium renovations.
-
Part of that survey will be coming out
November 4th.
-
You'll see that, we would hope
that you would engage in that survey
-
process, this, eight to ten minute survey
that'll help us determine,
-
your preference for premium seating
in Romney stadium.
-
This survey instrument
will be part of a larger
-
market study to determine our ability
to create a funding model,
-
for potential renovations
at Romney Stadium.
-
So I hope you'll join us.
Again, November 4th.
-
That survey, instrument will come to you
via email.
-
We're also excited about, winter sports,
as you know,
-
we will face one of the best home
schedules in our history
-
in men's basketball, coming up,
both non-conference and conference.
-
We're excited.
-
Season tickets still on sale.
-
If you haven't, purchased yours yet,
please do.
-
Also want you to know how excited we are
about the progress
-
of the Estes Center.
-
The Estes Center
is, on track to open in April.
-
It's a beautiful practice
venue for men and women's basketball
-
and a competitive volleyball venue.
-
Couldn't be more excited about,
what that will bring to our student
-
athletes and fans.
-
Want to end this by telling you.
-
Thank you for getting us to where we are.
-
You have been tremendous fans,
as shown by your attendance at our events.
-
Keep it up.
-
Let's get ready for some more success.
-
Go, Aggies!
