$65,000,000 rehab of Navy-Marine Corps Stadium.
New Brigade Sports Complex. (Ice Hockey Rink, retail stores, weight rooms, etc.)

Navy won 63 % of their athletic contests in 2014-15, with 11 All-Americans, 3 Academic All-Americans,14 Conference Coaches of the year, 12 Conference Athletes of the year, and 11 Conference Championships.
Hired two Head Football Coaches, one now at Georgia Tech, current one has most wins of any Navy Football Head Coach.
