And the school helps them with that. That's why most work the BYU youth football camps (even though it's not worth what they get paid to be a camp counselor and sleep in the dorms with those kids 🙂 )

But right now they are struggling... but still being asked to perform at a P5 level.

He needs to learn how BYU does fundraising. They do it by project. Locker room upgrades are coming.

Do the athletes use that area?

I think that's where the coaches' offices are, hence the outrage.

8/4/20 3:12pm

It has coaches offices and rooms for team and position group meetings.

Aren’t the coach’s offices on the 2nd floor?...
