Townie...good points.  Hadn't really thought about some the points you brought up.  Like most got caught up in the wave of what is the surface problem and fixing that, rather trying to find out was is the true/underlying problem and solution...if there in fact is one. 
 
I think right now these discussions should be put on hold until our new group of recruiters finish their recruiting.  We know how Marrone felt about the facilities and there effect on recruiting, but was/is that really the case?  Let this group conduct their recruiting and am sure they will get feedback from a lot of recruits.  If facilities are an issue for recruits, then so be it.  Then we need to find out what specifically about facilities is/are the issue?  From there the school/admin can get an idea of what improvements need to be made and start planning on what needs to be done.  Then fund raising can begin.  Guess in a lot of ways the cart was being put before the horse here.  I think donors would be much more willing to donate when they know that there are specific issues, what specifically is the plan and how specifically their money is going to be used.  I would hope that the coaches/recruiters are/will be getting feedback from recruits, not only from the ones who become players for SU but, especially those who do not.
