Unless theres a caveat saying that it can only be cashed when Golden gets the boot, IDGAS

GIVE NOTHING TO FOOTBALL

Fu cking enabler. Never call Robert Mann if you're strung out on crack. He'll buy more to "help"

 

[Notsince1985]

Good, nothing to Football

read more carefully.

Yeah, I saw the FB and edited my post accordingly

Would it have hurt to donate this money AFTER we fired Golden? Let it sit in an account, collect some interest, give that too. ****, Box has an IPO this summer. Buy some shares in that. Would have been far better than this. We're supporting mediocrity with every donation.

They will give 950,000 to girls' Bball, 40,000 to start a female baseball team, and 10k for FB toward Al's next extension.

Probably a bonus for Coach D and his top 15 defense

Nope.

Probably a staged PR move

Straight to the coffers of the losers running the football program into the ground.

Tell him what he has won...


BTW was this a different guy, wasn't this announced last year?

 

[Gatorhater]

A message to us that we are not hurting them enough yet. Keep up the noise.

 

[bozcane]

Great - get 500 more like him and we'll have enough for a new stadium on campus.

 

[valid]

we need mother****ers to go on record that they will donate only once Grohlden is canned.

Free soup and salad at the cafeteria today!

You're thinking about Ken Hunt, who donated $1.5M to Athletics in December...

Money should be used to buyout Golden and fire his ***!

Miami is in total political spin mode - definitely PR move. Shalala is a master politician - certain "useful idiots" in the media are being manipulated too.

What kind of "extension?"
