Fresno is increasing the student fees to pay for the switch to the MWC.

This is what Gonzo needs to do and elevate us to bigger and better things. :evil:

I thought that's what he did when he overruled the student vote last year or the year before and implemented the fee increase. Don't be casting every stone at Dr. Gonzalez. He has been a BIG supporter of athletics. Im sure he is paying attention down at Fresno since he was Provost there. After all, a lot of what he has been modeling Sac State on is Fresno.
 
What SHA said. But I will add the difference is at least the Fresno admin has the respectability to at least give their student body a reach around. Gonzo didn’t even use lube when he implemented the fee increase.

I do like this propaganda piece though and it saves face for the Fresno admin. I got a good laugh from the “quotes” from students regarding the new Fresno fee. :lol:

Yes, but the increase at Sac State was to balance books, it appears the increase at Fresno is to grow.

First things first. We are getting there. I think all the stuff that has happened has led to the overall Big Sky points championship. A lot of the core infrastructure of decent academic facilities, weight rooms, etc needed to be addressed first and its paying off its dividends now. I don't disagree with you that we should now try to take it to the next level.

You really need to take a trip back out here and see all the growth, especially in the athletic facilities (minus the gym). It's a hellava lot nicer than what we had in the 80's, 90's and early 2000's!

This. Although we are still lacking the new arena (which btw I think the language on memorandum that was approved by the students in ’04 doesn’t have an expiration date, so if funds are raised to get shovels in the ground on a new arena, a fee will still be implemented) a lot has been done in the recent past.

I just hope Fresneck doesn't get the old bait-and-switch like we did.

:ohno:
Looking back on the bait and switch, the football program may very well have been put on the chopping block without it. Had the money went to a new arena instead of the fieldhouse, the football program would still be floundering in failure and would have served as a perfect scapegoat for cuts by academia during this budget crunch. The immediate influx of quality athletes would not have happened and the recent success and rebirth of Hornet football would never have occurred.

It was still a shady move and we still need an arena, but what’s done is done.
