Arizona football: Greg Byrne to hold off on student fees to renovate Arizona Stadium

The Arizona Wildcats are currently competing with Utah to be the fourth best football program within their own division. Arizona Stadium, which has been around since 1929, has seen some great upgrades this decade, receiving a new video board in the south end zone in 2011 and a complete overhaul in the north end zone, part of the $73 million Lowell-Stevens Football Facility project for 2013.

Still, Arizona Stadium has been ranked among the worst venues in the Pac-12, often only leading Oregon State's Reser Stadium and Washington State's Martin Stadium.

Athletic Director Greg Byrne has been on the move, searching for a way to fund much-needed stadium upgrades and renovations.
