The AD candidates talked a lot about strategic planning for the future. How's this for a strategic plan?

The idea of using the Alumni House is excellent. One I had considered for a Thesis project, but I decided to go big as you already know.

I did a studio project years ago that looked at using the grounds for a conference center, those ideas would support the conference and office suite you mentioned. A practice facility could definitely be incorporated into the site. It's interesting idea, one i might work on in my spare time.

The downside is of course the same as any UWM building project: the general unwillingness to think/support ideas outside of the box (See the Union example), and the apathetic mindset of settling for mediocrity. We will continue to miss opportunities so long as the Director of UAP stays at his post.

Awesome ideas, but Coach Jeter won't even say publicly that we need to be back at the Cell. I can't see him endorsing an idea like this outside of a private conversation. That's my biggest beef with Jeter. He doesn't fight for or sell the program publicly. That's one area where Bruce was most special, based on all accounts I've ever heard.

That's not something he should do. Publicly, he needs to hammer the university's vision. Everything Bruce Pearl "spoke out" on was supported by the AD and the Chancellor, or their idea in the first place.

Bump to the present.
