Bummer, so nothing new here. At least Doogie hinted at another donation soon.
"It’s been in the works for some time, and the athletics department already had been counting it with the $70 million that has been raised toward the $150 million athletic village."

So, Joe C (the FB team beat writer) said the $12million portion for facilities was already being counted as part of the $70-million total, and Doogie said this counts as "new" money. Who can you trust?
NOT minimizing the importance of the gift - just pointing out the discrepancy between the two reporters. (assuming you call Doogie a reporter.......)
Doogie reporting otherwise

Perhaps we can go to Sid as a tiebreaker?

Marcus Fuller also reporting it is apart of the $70 million.
And also, I think a sizeable portion of the $70 million has yet to be announced...the Cargill guy that passed away, Lindahl's, and land o lakes.

I don't.(assuming you call Doogie a reporter.......)
Eihde? (sp?)
Eddy for 6...54 million.
Does this number include my $100?
I don't know but out of curiosity what kind of naming rights privilege are you getting in return? I was told my $50 would get my name etched with a sharpie on a 5 lb dumbbell.
