Morgan Burke's Weekend Tweet... Not sure what it means...

[RegionWarrior101]

Caught this over the weekend... Can anyone decipher it? Or is it a "Stay tuned because something cool could happen 5 years from now." So is this the North End Zone plan? I can see his brilliant idea being putting tarps over all those "PURDUE" sections. Make it look like Rice or the Sun Bowl. Maybe a permanent solution to the South End Zone?

Plan 2020. Plan what?

Met with 4 prominent A/E firms on all FB facilities on 1/14. Will lead to a FB focused plan as a subset of our overall depart.Plan 2020.

On a side note, the guy has sent out 186 tweets. I get not everyone has a social media account, but he should pay someone to do this for him then. It is 2015.

It's most likely the endzone plan, as that is what is mentioned in the strategic plan (2020).

More reactive behavior.

Sounds like Morgan is managing expectations. Wait 5 years and something "cool could happen."

Must not be football related because the way Purdue attendance has been trending, I don't know that Purdue can wait 5 years for something "cool" to happen.

Well, in Morgan's defense, he has been talking about the south endzone for far longer than 5 years.

Even if he announces tomorrow, he's still behind the timeline the last time he gave it. Hopefully they break ground after 2015 season. Im guessing thats best case senario.

Retirement date?

Hopefully they break ground after 2015 season.

Are you kidding. This won't happen for 3-5 years. Burke has his cheap replacement already built. He's going to get his money's worth from the current project.

Now in his defense, I'd just make more permanent what he has done, add a new jumbotron and light ribbons. Add in lights and you're good to go until it's time to build the eastside upper deck. Screw putting $23mil into a bunch of bad seats.

When I get my annual review and go over my future goals, I'm going to tell my boss that in five years something cool may happen and see how he responds.
