I am not sure there is a definitive answer. I am thinking with the oculus being a nice focal point, crowning touch to our stadium wasn't exactly enough to get it built. However, when they added the connector bridge to the north and south stands that made it more practical. I can imagine seeing an ESPN intro focusing on the uniqueness of our oculus. Just my thoughts.

Because a pergola of that size was too expensive?
Because we have to have a structure to house our giant tiger paw bat signal?
Because a crack den was already taken by the coots?
Because a 'cuse style dome was too hot and loud?
The real answer is if you build it they (top notch recruits) they will come.

We apparently have a ton of money to spend and foolish things like comfortable seating and affordable concessions are not very important. I know I would much rather have an oculus and have a 390 pound 'lady' sit on my leg while I enjoy a 5 dollar bottle of water at a noon game! Who wouldn't?????

I also believe it is a waste of money. There have to be a number of areas where that money could have been put to better use.

Get it finished so that we can start to do something with

the East Endzone!! Time for a major project around and over the hill.
I envision some sort of viewing concourse/party deck like they had in Jacksonville over the top of a new Ford tunnel/arch that the players enter through to spill down the hill.
That'd be very cool.

That's a rhetorical question. Once The Oculus is complete, you will feel it's power for yourself. Once the PAW-signal lights up the night, it lets the world know Death Valley is ready to enact revenge upon anyone who opposes. I'm other words, it's a fair warning to any fool thinking of coming into our house.

The oculus will also take the place of all cell phones while your in the valley. If you want to call or txt somebody the oculus will read your mind and do the communicating for you. By next year it will send emails for you. Just a few of the many powers of the oculus.

That in the original plans THE OCULUS (it should always be capitalized BTW) wanted to post people's thoughts to Tigernet but Crump shot that down because he has hard enough time regulating the thoughts that people have to think about before they type.
