Message: [QUOTE="HoustonCuse, post: 2039570, member: 87"] What becomes of the ACC money being brought in? I have no idea how universities or athletic departments spend their money, but it seems like the ACC move added quite a bit of cash flow into the university that wasn't there before. Is that money all earmarked already and if so, on what? If they increased their income by $10M per year, which I think is ballpark, then a $200M dome reno doesn't seem that crazy. Lets say you raise $5M from donors, get $20M from government in some form or other, get a little more scratch for the naming (conservatively $5M) and you finance the remaining $170M, that would be reasonable over a 20-25 year period or so given the cash surplus that must exist. Unless my numbers are completely insane, the renovation could be financed over a reasonable period without ever touching university funds and while funding all athletics programs at Big East levels.
