Greene told AUC that he wants it built and operational within the next three years.
Per Marcello’s article, one area being explored to build tbe complex is at the old track facility along Biggio Drive which is across the street from the outdoor and indoor practice facilities.

Greene did not mention fundraising totals or goals but referenced USCe FOF (50 million) and Clemson’s (55 million) as benchmarks.

Initial plans for the project were intended to be introduced to the board during November or February, but were delayed due to the tumultuous 2018 football season.

Also delayed because Gus wanted 100% control.. As Greene said, he must learn to be more human.

If that’s the case we need to hurry up and secure funding before our 2019 season becomes a shite show.

Had a chance to give back to our student-athletes today with a financial contribution toward our training room! The Auburn Family at work again! It’s great to be an Auburn Tiger. #War Eagle!

Just giving back the money he's stealing amirite?

In all seriousness though it's kind of lame to brag about your giving.

He really didn’t. He didn’t even list what he gave. I think this was a big fundraising day so could’ve been trying to motivate others to donate.

Not when you consider a segment (the mentally challenged segment) of our fan base thinks he is stealing his salary.

I don't blame him.

The athletic department films every coach giving and uses their Twitter accounts to post letting every know they gave and that you should give too.

1. This isn’t anything new
2. JB Grimes was one of many coaches from every sport on campus that gave back

This is all very silly

Gus is a control paranoid freak. For his 2 million he wanted control over the design of the FOF. Greene said no way.
