BOV Approves funding for Athletic center improvements

Quoted from the below linked article.

Merryman Center weight room renovation and expansion: With funding from private gifts, the $4.9 million project will support student-athlete training and preparation. The project, in combination with the to-be-constructed Student-Athlete Performance Center dining facility, will introduce spaces for a full spectrum of training needs in a centralized location. Practice facilities, strength training, classroom preparation, and dining facilities will be located adjacent to one another.
In addition, a resolution to supplement the Student-Athlete Performance Center project with an additional $3.7 million was approved, bringing the total project authorization to $20.4 million.

But will it have a water slide and laser tag course?

and turkey bacon and a soft serve ice cream machine?

Every time I hear about facility upgrades, I always wonder what would be better for recruiting - a facilities upgrade, or a larger support staff?

Why not both? 😃

Can we get some $$$ to hire a resident legal team in the athletic dept?

Let me stipulate I can send my HC donation there and I am down.

If you play it, they will win.
