Quote:So I just watched and listened to Khan.

Some of the statements and the way he said things kind of struck me. 

***DON'T BASH ME, I REALLY WANT A LEGITIMATE DISCUSSION!!!!!!!!***

 

He said in the interview on the main site and I'm paraphrasing, he wants to succeed and stay in JAX. (Khan did seem kind of snobby)

He doesn't sound like moving is NEVER out of the question, which I believe the reporter was trying to get out of him.

 

They also made it very clear today that the Jags strength in London needs to remain high in order for the franchise to be stable in Jacksonville.

 

As residence in JAX, is this "new" news? Or is this basically how you've been feeling for a while?

A lot of Jags fans, myself included keep saying with all these renovations/investments, the Jags are not going anywhere.

 

I was pretty shocked that Khan didn't give a firm statement and otherwise dismiss the whole question all together. 

 

"We aren't going anywhere" is what i was expecting to hear.

I also felt the same way, but everyone perceives things differently. I really have to believe with as much money is being spent both by the city and Jaguars on stadium upgrades you would be hard pressed to find many better venues in the NFL, thus moving the team would be pointless. I also believe I read that the amphitheater events would go into the Jags pockets so that is also increased revenue for them.


London is the only other variable and it is going to take a while for the logistics to iron themselves out if NFL wants a full time team there in the early 20's.
