I haven’t really had any talks about this in awhile?
Has anybody heard anything on it?

I know nothing but I can't imagine this goes to the regents if its not a done deal.
It’s supposedly already funded through private donations so the request to the regents is just a formality.
Correct, and then it was paused, then we had the money and moving forward, then the NIL ruling and pause button.
I’m in discussions over naming rights due to my substantial donation. Somewhere north of 100 dollars if I recall correctly. Anywho…… I’m open to naming it after me but would also entertain other names …… let’s hear some from you poor people … I mean fellow Cowboy Wrestling Fans!!
I’ve got a great one!
“We built this because Gundy got fired Training Center”
or
“The Pollard”

The Kick em in the Shins TC
I wonder if this facility will also be used for the girls program if it ever becomes a sport and not just club. My guess is it would be used for both

Sounds like AJ Ferrari’s OnlyFans pseudonym when his career is over
AJ Jacques has been a longtime contributor to OSU wrestling and when something is needed he is there. He was a foundation donor when OSU was looking for commitments for the training facility he stroked a 7 figure check not just a commitment. He endowed scholarships at several weights. A.J is a great guy and as pleasant of a man as you will ever meet!
He is so humble he will probably be a little ticked I posted it.
Is there any way I can become friends with AJ?
Eh, I was told early summer we were good with some matching stuff happening when ready.
Did the match campaign get trashed? I knew the number was 16 (but might’ve been confused somewhere with Football stuff) which was down from the original rendering a tad.
The Low T Center sounds about right.
Not sure just know we aren’t quite there yet. They feel confident it won’t be long though.
I believe once they hit the 1/2 mark someone is gonna match that 8 million
Hockey can get $150M for a stadium but we couldn't get $30M for a new facility?
But then... how can I trust what you're saying
It’s absolutely a tongue in cheek statement. Even if they have a donor willing to shell out whatever the cost may be, there’s no way you’re building anything in Stillwater bigger/better than 50m I would think. And it feels silly to even think that would happen haha
