The donation will be used to help fund the construction of an alumni center on the school's Coral Gables campus. A room will be named after the couple. The center will include a library, gallery, cafe and meeting areas, and the university hopes to have it completed within five years, spokeswoman Margot Winick said Friday. Johnson played football at the school and graduated in 1995. His wife, Dany Garcia Johnson, a member of the university's board of trustees and founder of a Miami-based wealth management firm, also attended the university. The couple met at the school. Johnson is currently promoting the film "Gridiron Gang" in which he stars as a football coach at a juvenile prison.
