Marquette got its practice facility completed with Final Four fundraising, Butler has announced a $10 million effort to renovate the Hinkle Field House. Present company excepted, it seems most schools seem to raise money with a Final Four bid. www.indystar.com/article/20100401/SPORTS0609/4010330/ |

I was always given the impression that Village A was actually Village NCAA.
What happened to our money from 2007 on the other hand is anyone's guess.

The issue, as I see it, is not so much fundraising. It is one of priorities. We have been prevented from giving money for a practice facility not because the money is not there or could not be raised, but, rather, the University has prioritized any number of things ahead of athletics - MSB building, science building, etc. come to mind.
Until there is sufficient support for fundraising, meaning permission to give money to McD at the expense of these other projects, we'll be ticked off. This also means that supporters of raising money for a practice facility must reject the continued prioritization at the expense of the practice facility.
Very easy to support fundraising (who doesn't), but it becomes increasingly difficult when you have to tell certain communities no.
