Cytown Update

[hiltonisheaven]

Jamie starts at 50:15 for those who want to hear it.

Cytown stuff at ~1:23:00

For those using the Varsity App for game feeds, you can also listen to the Coaches’ Corner show under the ‘On Demand’ tab of the App.

Dr. Wintersteen is well thought of in major ag circles so I could imagine she'd have some good influence that a "Deere/Case/Vermeer" type of large donor would be interested in.

She is a great person.

She is a great person.

Yeah I don't know if legally ISU had to conduct a search after our Pilot Prez crashed but it was pretty obvious to most that she will/should be the next one. Wouldn't have had to spend a dime on a search IMO.

I patiently await JP and Wintersteen's invitation to wine and dine me for the big bucks.

My donation level should be good for at least Qty (5) custom embossed urinal cakes.

Ya they would have to put it out there for anyone to apply. Every position at ISU is the same way. Did she have a leg up on other applicants, yes.

Some highlights:
*Construction fences going up next week for Phase 1 (infrastructure)
*Bids came in ~$5M under budget for infrastructure portion
*Secured a major naming gift to start infrastructure portion
*Combo of low bid + major gift leads to potential earlier start to Phase 2 infrastructure (parking lots, center "spine" to ISC)
*Conversations/presentations on hotel/convention center have occurred
*JP going out on donor calls with Wintersteen the next few weeks
*First step to Scheman renovation goes to BOR this week

The McCaffery Sewar Line?

I know at one point there was talks about doing a lower donor version of Johnny's in Scheman for basketball games... Has that idea died or still going around? I believe that included enclosing the skywalk between Scheman and Hilton but with CyTown potentially having restaurant/brewpub space, is that needed?

All of the preliminary info about the Scheman renovation hints to that still happening.
