They do just enough to make people think they are interested but most know they are full of it. I think they believe since they got us into the pac 12 their job is done.
all kidding aside, i think that's unfair and not true. they know they have to do more. the admin's hands are a bit tied by the transition into the new conference and, unlike virtually every other major athletic department, CU has to run a balanced budget and self-fund itself. it is a big deal for it to go get more $ by borrowing. so, they don't want to spend on credit now to do the stuff that needs to be done. as the $ kicks in, things will open up and these guys will look a lot more visionary than they do right this minute.
have they done a perfect job? hell, no. they kept d2 danny at least a year too long and they have whiffed on a few other moves, but the future is brighter for the CUAD than it has been in years. the leadership knows they cannot sit still and they have to capitalize on this momentum--- stay tuned.
True, but I keep hearing about these big donors and then....nothing.
i think there may be some fatigue from all the hands out from CU overall during an economic downturn, but i think the big thing would be for the leadership to find a couple of anchor donors and then hit the rest of us hard to put up or shut up. we've got enough alums with $ and who still support the Buffs and who are ecstatic about the move to the p12 that i would think a campaign could be successful.

Better than self-funding someone else.
I would donate a little cash if I knew it was going towards something.
"We need $X million for the practice facility, we need your help". I would toss up $50. Is that much? No, absolutely not at all. But it would start getting me used to opening my wallet, and of course the little donations add up.
It's cool though, we're building a water-park!

The problem is that they speak in generalities rather than laying out specific goals. Maybe they have goals but, if so, they do a good job of keeping them secret. They need something tangible that fans, donors, athletes and staff can get excited about. Maybe architectural renderings and a funding plan. I'd think we do have something in the works.
I thought this too. To long has CU remained unchallenged in the state. I hope they build a ginormous mega stadium on campus thats state of the art as well as not one, but two, count em, two, practice bubbles. That might get er going in boulder.
I demand a professional job. Make the lines crisp and uniform using the authorized style guidelines.
The spent what? $750,000 on that? shesh.
Strike a nerve did he? Too bad its true.
how that can be anything other than opinion is beyond me
he looks like a simpsons character with that fat upper lip
Ummm, based on what reasoning?
The same reasoning that has their administration saying how great it will be when gameday is broadcast from ft fun.
The kool-aid is strong at Wyoming Southern.
I hope he likes the smell of **** while he's on his back porch.

Looking forward to plenty of barbecues on that back porch. It's a bold new era. Not looking to bounce. I'm a long-term commit.
