This isn't getting done for awhile. Saw people on the board saying this fall. Nope.Posted On: Aug 21st 2017, 11:35 AM #370099
fencing is going up, on the site, but no machines on site yet. suspect they have to get the utlity lines marked.

Miami opens crowdfunding campaign for indoor practice facility
They need $2M to complete their funding. What do you guys think of this idea?

Crowdfunding at this level would not work for us. The big donors have already given. The small donors could make a small dent but not $2M.
There are still too many people who feel FAU sucked them dry when they were students and see attempts like this as continuing to leech onto them. Exacerbating the issue is that the team has not done well since 2008 and so people don't see the same big picture as, say, people on this board or the Schmidts when they get a private sit-down with people like President Kelly.

Crowdfunding? Why? Don't they have a major TV deal like SEC does? Don't they have several former athletes that made it to the NFL that can raise this amount without putting a dent in their pockets?

At this point it's just smoke and mirrors with the fences.

It's been almost a month since the Boca Bowl, has construction ramped up? Or are we still in a holding pattern….Posted On: Jan 13th 2018, 2:21 PM #376330
CB, I was wondering the VERY SAME THING this a.m.! Told construction would start after the Bowl game, well……..
