In a recent development regarding the proposed Jaguars stadium deal, it appears that the approval from Club Oligarch is still pending, keeping the situation in limbo. While the Jaguars don't anticipate significant resistance from the league, the other team owners might not be entirely thrilled with the implications of a 50-50 split between Jacksonville and the Jaguars.

The primary concern among the other owners seems to stem from the precedent such an arrangement would set for their own endeavors in obtaining free funds for their respective venues. As franchise values continue to surge, securing taxpayer dollars has become increasingly challenging, with voters showing reluctance towards such measures.

Jaguars President Mark Lamping remains optimistic, stating, "There's a lot of questions, but we're satisfied that we will be able to effectively answer those questions and look forward to getting this finalized in mid-October." Lamping's confidence and positive outlook indicate the team's readiness to address any doubts raised by the league.

From Jacksonville's perspective, any attempt by the league to renegotiate the deal should be met with a firm stance. Five words should serve as their response: "Take it or leave it." Furthermore, if the Jacksonville City Council decides to take a bold approach, they could even propose a decreasing offer of $1 million per day until the deal is accepted, adding a sense of urgency.

While the approval of the Jaguars stadium deal remains uncertain until Club Oligarch gives its seal of approval, both the Jaguars and the city of Jacksonville are determined to see the arrangement through. Set to be finalized in mid-October, all parties involved are hopeful that a mutually beneficial agreement will ultimately be reached.
