Hmmmm. Rice AD with Stanford ties. Stanford opens new football facility TODAY. - RiceDoc - 10-04-2013 04:54 PM

Hmmmm. Interesting news and timing if you ask me. Perhaps simply coincidence, but certainly doesn't hurt! The new Rice AD has Stanford connections. Stanford opened its New Football facililty TODAY. Bet we can get some pointers on what to avoid and what is on the wish we had thought of X list.

Here's a link to another story that gives a fair amount of detail of the features of this $21 million addition to the Cardinal's Arrillaga Family Sports Center.

Quote:The project was funded in large part by billionaire real estate developer John Arrillaga, a Stanford alum whose name adorns many buildings on campus.

No surprise there. I hope JK finds a Rice-fan Arrillaga or three.

Quote:There also were large donations from former players. ... There's also the Andrew Luck Auditorium, a 136-person theatre-style meeting room named after the record-setting quarterback drafted No. 1 overall by the NFL's Indianapolis Colts last year. (Matt Doyle, Stanford's associate athletic director and director of football operations,) said Luck made a donation to the project but did not ask for any recognition. The auditorium's name was given after a private donation from someone else, Doyle said.
