I actually like the idea of creating the opportunity for a personally guided tour of either players or staff. This is kind of a rough season to do that though.
First look at the brand new Seton Hall Basketball Performance Center‼️
- Thread starter Halldan1
- Start date
I'd make it free for all adults. An open Townhall discussion about P4P, what management is planning and what they need from the fans.
Have Sha and McBride speak, have a few of our top donors speak about why they donate and why others should follow suit. Then open it up for any fans/alumni to ask questions and give suggestions on ways to improve engagement and donations.
Then announce the beginning of a matching campaign to raise funds. Tours and autographs for kids can be done at a separate date and time. Make this a night about the splendor of the facility and how SH survives in the new landscape.
I think this is a fantastic idea however for reasons I can’t figure out Felt and McBride like to operate with extreme privacy in this space.
You're right. Everything's a secret. Hiding and not sharing details is usually a sign that there isn't a sound plan or results are not good.
It's an opportunity to celebrate the Facility and show it as an example of what can be accomplished when the school and alumni come together to work towards a goal. The goal now is Revenue Sharing/P4P.
School should state what it believes the middle tier BE teams will have and announce what the SH goal is. They should be clear how much the University will budget towards it and how much they hope to raise in donations.
My update is that I purchased one the day it came out and I've been communicated more times about buying one after the fact than I've been communicated to about anything else in the past 10 years. They should save the stamp, they already got me to buy one lol.
On a serious note, I for one haven't heard anything. Dan mentioned that these will on the exterior of the building so, if true, they will probably just assume people will walk up and look on their own. Not sure what else they are planning, but it would be nice to offer purchasers of a brick a separate, private tour of the practice facility and/or a meet and greet with some players. Neither would cost anything.
The joke is in today's mail I received a letter from Pirate Blue asking me to purchase a brick . I purchased one in November . I guess they do not do their homework "The Blind leading the Blind". So I do not really expect any type of invite but that also works both ways .
