The two-year contract for this "experiment" ends with this game . Contract must be renewed. Koch at the behest of his master Mick is alrerady lobbying for permanent status for Riverfront Mausoleum and Xavier officials, especially new AD and Chris are saying campus or not at all.

They could play the games on campus and still have a markup on the tickets to benefit the Freedom Center - I wouldn't have a problem with that.
But as we all know and suspect on the Xavier front, the Freedom Center was nothing more than a cover in order to get the 2 teams off campus and moved over to a neutral site. If I were a UC fan, I'd like my odds a lot better winning a pair of games on a neutral floor than a home-away series.

Never heard it called that before, but it is an apt phrase. That venue sucks the life out of every event held there IMHO.
Oh, and as for the original topic, the student section attendance was terrible on Saturday -- looked a little more than half full. I was wondering why since evidently exams aren't until the week of 12/16.

Shitty opponent, Saturday afternoon at 2:00 in the busy Christmas season, significant storm the day before, team on a losing streak, rules against bringing your own food in that rival Mike Brown, overpriced food and drinks.
I think it's a wonder that as many people showed up as they did. What exactly was the draw?
Don't worry about it. The team will continue to win games, the schedule will get stronger, and the holidays will pass. Come January, the house will be rocking."Give a toast to my brother, hug your family, and do everything possible to live the life you dream of. God Bless."

I think more than anything Weather played a huge factor. We'll see tomorrow night I suppose.

It's called principle...and I hope XU sticsk to it. There's no doubt XU would have continued this series on campus. This was, without a doubt, a ploy by UC to either 1) end the series (knowing they have the advantage at a neutral site, and knowing XU would ultimately end this without a home and home); or 2) never have to step foot in Cintas again where they know their success has been very limited. The problem is, they don't hold the big boy pants anymore.
Because of the altercation and having to "save face", they agreed to 2 years...it should rotate or not be played.
