[QUOTE="SyracuseMiami, post: 867449, member: 654"]
I was thinking back a bit around some of the conversations on realignment.  The notion was raised that private schools are un equipped to compete in the future and just the large state schools would prosper long term.   I do take a bit of satisfaction that some of the schools' fans who were propagating that belief are struggling this year, but I digress.   I'm noting several private schools that are prospering, some with little to no tradition.  Stanford & Miami (traditional powers with 9+ wins) and non traditional powers like Baylor and Duke both with double digit wins.

My point?    While I like what Dr Gross has done for the program during his time, I'd like for donors to be better informed and engaged on the strategic plan for building our program.  I.e. What is still needed to make our program competitive, which investments are budgeted for, which require further investment from donors (set some targets,  etc).  We have the foundation; it's time to inform, engage, and mobilize Orange Nation to take the next step.  IPF was good start,  but it's just a start to building the program into contender.

Go Cuse!
