Manley Renovations started over break.

Ok maybe this is why Doug waited.
 
Good to hear. Can not imagine why they didn't start in December... Recruits could have seen the process and it would be closer to being complete in the fall..

They didn't have the money yet? I know they received a large donation the day before the Big East Tournament.
 
Maybe the construction equipment takes up a lot of Manley parking space, so they waited until after the last home BB game to start?
 
One of the reasons IB and I mentioned why Jr day was moved this year.
 
They were discussed here previously.
No public renderings, AFAIK.

I would expect a public announcement prior-to, or part-of, the Spring Game (Junior Day) activities. I'd also expect TGD to delay announcements until after the basketball team has finished playing.
 
just for confirmation - by Manley renovations you are referring to training rooms, meeting rooms, etc - not the actual practice facility, right? also, did this round of renovations involve improving the locker rooms that are always cited as being such an embarrassment?

$$$, plans, review/revision of plans, plans out for bids, university bureaucracy in review of bids, possible need for more funding, contract with contractors, review of said contracts, contractor schedules, local government bureaucacy in obtaining permits, builiding materials. You pick it, it can delay construction.

Agreed, we aren't talking remodeling somebody's bathroom here in Cicero
 
I remember the conversation, but can't remember the specifics of this part of the project. Lockerrooms, whirlpools and other training aids? Anything else?

coaches offices I believe?

Does that explain why Mookie Lee was sitting next to TGD at courtside and DC was sitting in the ozone during the BET?

Who is Mookie Lee?

This guy. I guess he goes by the name of Spike too. As you can see he likes to hang with winners.

I think coaches rooms/offices were being done as well...

Never knew his real name was Mookie. I googled Mookie Lee and got some guy that appeared on the Survivor show. :)

Just wanted to start another Mookie rumor, but for the heck of it Google "Do The Right Thing".

Not familiar with the plans, although the actual practice facility will remain as is.

Training rooms were allready re-done last fall, it was in one of those SU magazines you get as Orange Pack member two brand new whirpools to both hot and cold looked really nice. Perhaps those were for all SU sports though they seemed to insinuiate it was for football

All makes sense, Just wishful thinking on my part.
 
cold tubs, locker rooms reno/addition for coaches and players, lounge and cafe for players, and addition at the hall of fame room, will be real nice when done
