No need. What do you think ADJC has been doing with that $20M we've been making the last couple years?  The stockpile is there and ready to be spent on the next coach.

We're closing to announcing this upgrade than you think. It was never intended to be announced at the bowl though.
 
Also, LOL at all the engineer and construction blabber mouths in this thread.

So if we go to the state for 15 mill, that means more suites, no?

What does "close to announcing" mean?  One month?  Mid Summer?  First game of 2014 season?

I don't think that was ever the plan or goal.

Yeah.  I think it was more of the fans' goal.

Wasn't a public statement in AZ. Was a hushed, rather heated discussion at the hotel. I attended a party the Sat before Christmas and spoke with Mary Vanier and Bob Krause (now married) about the project and they seemed confident there would be an announcement. After 50% is raised they will go public to raise the other 15%...State will bond 35%.

Heated as in "grrr, I'm angry there's no announcement," heated?

More like: grr, I worked really hard to get the Vaniers to move up the time table and you can't raise the money. What was the point? I did my job, now do yours.

One of those jobs seems a hell of a lot easier to meet a time frame than the other. In what world does asking a person permission to do something take the same amount of time to raise $25 million from the same people who just gave you money for a facility project.

I'm guessing the person whose job it was to raise the money was the same person pushing person B to work on the Vaniers.  If someone asked me to go convince the Vaniers to let us tear down that building with a time frame for the demolition, then that same person isn't on track to raise the money to do what I just convinced the Vaniers to do, I'd be pissed to.  I doubt UPKS told Bob to go work on the in-laws and John to raise the money.  Much more likely John himself told Bob to go work on the in-laws.

That and I thought there was a rumor that they had some sort of agreement in place when they donated for the current building
