Interesting. Thanks for posting these. I knew Plank had made a big pledge toward the Cole Field House renovation, but didn't know the details.
I'd still point out that despite that money coming in, the athletics department has been cutting non-revenue sports and still running brobdingnagian deficits (I couldn't find exact numbers quickly, but my impression is that the annual athletics department deficit has averaged in the low 8 figures recently), during a time when budget cuts are seriously hurting the academic side of the school.
