For more than a year the Chicago Cubs have been in talks with Arizona State University for ASU to partner with the Cubs on the new stadium the Cubs are building in Mesa. Today Thomas Lenneberg, assistant media relations director for baseball and football at ASU, issued a press release stating that the two sides had failed to reach an agreement and that ASU was ending talks with the Cubs and will now be looking for another home. A recent rumor stated that the talks between the two sides reaching an agreement were in doubt.
“After over a year of negotiations, we are officially ending conversations with the Chicago Cubs and the City of Mesa and moving forward with pursuing other options for our baseball program,” Lenneberg said in the press release.
