listen, I think when rocko announces stadium and arena expansion or renovations this summer your mind might change a bit… with actual timelines unlike sac. They have names and media but base facilities, track record in literally every sport, and money is on much more solid on the Davis end.

yeah I don’t doubt that when rocko announces our suite expansion project that they will sell quickly. Plenty of local companies and ag alum who would love to say they have a suite

our luxury suites cant come fast enough. that revenue generation!

Hard not to love an alt uniform... i guess were moving to the MW so we gotta get some uniform referencing a place in the mountains haha

Most definitely reading into it too deeply but having multiple davis football coaches repost the Gloria Nevarez (mw commissioner) visiting davis post on their accounts commenting about how awesome davis is makes me wonder if they tell recruits the mw is in sight for fb.

yeah I want a dang hot dog on any side of the basketball arena. New concessions would be nice!

Really want to echo the sentiment that I hope this info comes out early in summer as to build momentum, especially getting financial commitments to the projects from donors.

I thought about this too, was thinking since the reno would probably be expansion related (with some seat additions and boxes), it would probably less of a new undertaking..

my exact thoughts. Seems like ELS has done a variety of collegiate athletic and general facilities.

I believe this is what Dr. Mike was referencing! Should hear by this summer about stadium renovations!

I personally think Montana in November would be more palatable than swampy south in august.

I understand this perspective but also I think its a different convo when someone is loyal but also has a lifetime losing record and has not brought us back to march madness since 2017. Its no personal attack, but I don't see how the program will be rejuvenated without some movement? This is the longest tenured d1 basketball staff (including all assistants) if I am correct.

I agree with Gabe when it comes to needing to shake things up (whether that is coaching, recruiters, facility work) before going to the MW, but I do not think Sac State's strategy is a promise by any means of long term success. Its just too much betting in my opinion. Our basketball program has felt really stale as of late. That game on ESPN was so fun, but it seems like we have been pretty "mid" since that march madness run in 2017. Good kids, nice coaches, but I really think our current position a year out from joining the MW is worrying. A coach with a less than .500 winning percentage, mediocre season (yes 2 years ago we were a game from march madness, I understand that as an outlier), facilities needing to get renovations started, and not much of a team identity. Other than joining the new conference, I feel like football and basketball feel like they are totally different in the energy around them. We have had star players that have kept some energy, but in general everyone I have talked to is like "I loved Pepper..." not "I am loving Davis basketball"

legit chance teddye is picked before sanders

First day of the draft! Predictions if lan or any aggies get drafted (in general not just today)?

I’m not trying to bag on sac state, I’m seriously not, but if the donations on give day for them stay this low… they may have a problem. Moving to FBS and all the buzz around and getting less than 4,000 dollars for both football and the stadium.

Nearing 90k! Fantastic!

This comment on the sac forum sums it up for me: "He hasn’t identified where the new track will be located. And if track is a priority (boo) then where will it go? If he is adding padding to the current bleachers, then he is not replacing the bleachers or infrastructure. Or removing the track. If they were really going to remove the track and pull the stands 30yds closer to the field, they wouldn’t incur adding padding to the current setup.

Quickly, morphing into Nevada X2 type stadium.

I can’t take any of this too seriously with a track in the football stadium. What started as grandeur and never been done at Sac State is slowly being baited and switched into FBS light. Just enough to get by. No wonder, nPAC knew better. MWC knew better and took the team that has a real stadium that can be added to easily and looks like a stadium. Not padded bleachers used for the Rose Bowl parade one time."

The champions achieve initiative they did last year raised 40K which was over the expected..

I was thinking the same thing. I tried finding last years give day #'s but im either clueless or just cant find it. 70K seems pretty great.
