Not only that, but (and please somebody correct me if I'm remembering incorrectly) neither RIT nor any other AHA school makes any revenue directly from AHA tournament games of any round, regardless of site. It all goes to the league. I would assume all 12 teams evenly split any returns the league chooses to re-distribute from that pool of $.
Maybe they should stop because by all reasonable indications they are not doing a good job at gathering money. And if they are, then that information or perhaps I should say excitement, is certainly not getting out the general public. Again no excitement = no money. People want to feel like they are donating to a good cause and/or something that is exciting and they want to be a “part of”.
That's good (and their jobs), but there is no outward appearance that any progress has been made and that means all the small donors still don't know what their money has gone for, which kills the prospects for large numbers of small donors. Of course, those donors don't pay for the bulk of it, but there has also been no announcements of the needed big donors to encourage the smaller ones. Pictures of what is actually being constructed would be one small step.

The only news since the groundbreaking is an explanation of why it looks like nothing is happening. Makes me want to grab the checkbook!!
