Does that mean that we still do not have a deal for athletic facilities and they are mixed with academic buildings and fund raising?

Keep waiting for the next (and next) Regents meetings?

It's mixed in with the comprehensive fundraising.

That's what I thought.

So using the FB analogy, another first down and 10 to go from midfield???

i have no idea when they'll vote 'go or no go'.

This is likely the FIRST step, not the goal line.

They're already well past a "recommendation to immediately launch the development of a multi-year comprehensive fundraising campaign."

Hopefully the discussions were much more specific than this very generic summary.

RE: Regents Meeting April 20, 2017
Couple of observations:

1). The football field will not move southward toward the Convo.

2). The track is obviously gone. Doesn't look like the field will be raised or lowered.

3). The building will close the north end zone very nicely and the jumbotron will fit perfectly.

4). It appears they have shoe horned in as much as possible within the avaiable space (not much, because of the baseball stadium, and IPF).

I think it was designed by Jerry Jones of the Cowboys. Lol.

In terms of style, functionality, impact, etc. it is a "10".

Nothing like it in the MAC or maybe G5.

Revamping/moving the stands in, plus adding that scoreboard, are the types of things that draw recruits and bring the fans back. We always talk about what it takes for our program to move in a positive direction. Winning games, and showing that you care about competing in terms of facilities, is how it happens. I'm blown away by these renderings.

These are exciting times for EMU athletics.

Fantastic! 18 month building timeline. Donate now to get shovels in the ground. 1 million + Corporate donors for various naming rights is what is needed now to really push this along.

Would love to see the stands closer to the field, but almost impossible within the allotted budget.

Great job on the website, renderings, videos:
