ALAMEDA, Calif. -- While a prospective agreement to keep the Raiders at the Oakland Coliseum for the upcoming NFL season is "95 percent" done, a Coliseum executive said nothing is certain, leaving the team in a precarious position.
"We still have one rather significant open issue, and I will be going back to the Raiders to discuss that with them and, hopefully, we’ll be able to resolve it," Coliseum Commission executive director Scott McKibben told reporters on Wednesday. "And if we can’t, there’s a possibility that we won’t have a deal."
McKibben, though, would not specify what the issue is, and the Raiders have not responded to inquiries asking for comment.
