UW go B1G fund …
What is this for? I’ve read scholarships, facilities, nutrition etc. Is that all? There is like 130 million raised and they want 350 million total. Is this to help buy players across all sports or strictly to pay for support staff across all sports? Is it to bridge the shortfall from the half share? All of the above? That’s like 50 million per year until the media deal is up. Pretty high end scratch. Anyone have a more intimate knowledge of where all that money will be going? TIA

Expanded Priorities
The expansion of Go BIG! for Washington focuses on three core pillars that will shape the next chapter of Husky Athletics:
Scholarship Support: Investing in Our Athletes
Through Go BIG! for Scholarships, Husky Nation will rally to raise an additional $3 million annually, ensuring that every student-athlete has the support to succeed academically and athletically.
Sports Science & Data Analytics: Powering Performance Through Innovation
To keep pace with a rapidly evolving landscape, UW Athletics will invest $10 million over the next three years in advanced sports science and data analytics, strengthening performance and prioritizing student-athlete well-being.
Facility Enhancements: Building for the Future
With recent investments like a $25 million upgrade to football facilities and the opening of a new student-athlete nutrition center, UW Athletics is now entering the next phase of enhancements. Upcoming projects include elevating the football game day experience, upgrading the Husky Softball Complex, renovating basketball coaching offices, and enhancing training and weight room facilities across all programs.

Thank you. I was hoping they were buying players. This will do though.
