Moving the performances associated with the Rieman complex to Allston would also have disastrous effects on the audiences such performances could attract.

...clinic put on by Rogus should not have come as a complete surprise. Since high school, Rogus has been a catch-and-shoot rifleman who has made his mark beyond the arc. His spot-up jumper is one of the most accurate on the team and was enough to attract interest from other Ivy schools, including Princeton, during his senior year of high school in Maryland...
