Machado and Alonso

Di Mare was at a recent basketball game with Yonder and Machado, who is married to Yonder's sister (who in turn graduated from UM).

Am hoping that we hear of a conjunct donation from both families, though, I hear fundraising is going well.

I thought I remember reading an article a few years back of how they train together on campus.

They were looking to raise an additional $10M when they completed the last renovations, but could not secure the funds. They were planning to use most of that $10M to rebuild the Ron Fraser building. I wonder if they gave up on that completely, since it was not part of these renovations. If they could convert the temporary, and non "chair-back", into permanent seating, it would have a marked effect on the stadium.
