Q: Barry kind of touched on this yesterday, but how close are things with the concept of the new football facility?
A: We’re probably 75 to 80 percent of the way there. We’ve pretty much narrowed down location. We still got some logistics to work out, some pricing to put together. Then you’ve got to get some donors who are willing to make substantial seven- to eight-figure contributions. That takes a little time to vet that out. Once that takes place you move forward. But we have a general concept of location, space allocations, functionality, that we feel good about. The coaches feel good about. The staff feels good about. The administration feels good about. It’s just a function of continuing that last 20 percent of the race and making sure our football program continues to be in a place where we can win championships.
