This has been needed for quite some time. For the nay sayers how much money do you think the basketball program brings in?

FELIKS2121 did you notice that this Mackey project is going to be funded, almost entirely, by private donations.

Those donors ARE able to make donations to fund renovations to buildings already on campus, if they choose.

The Truth !

The practice facility and new academic center is key for facility. This will enhance recruiting.

Classic arenas shouldn't be replaced, and Mackey's one of them. In fact, the place can get so loud you can't even speak to the person next to you.

This is one of the best basketball arenas in the country, and this renovation will make it better.

Boiler up!

Yeah right, invest millions into basketball courts while other buildings like LILY or Forestry are falling apart, all you care is about recruiting, how about students who are already at Purdue?
