Luke Getsy with $5K as well. Him and @Captain Kangaroo doing the heavy lifting for football.

Someone just donated 50k, bless their heart ❤️❤️

$608 away from 20k raised for MBB

I wish I was you🤣

More help is needed, but UA's run through an exhaustive list of coaches, AD's and losing programs for decades. Good luck finding anyone willing to shell out big bucks if they don't feel UA will spend that money wisely. I make my donation to football annually because I like Joe and feel he merits support. I have fun attending the games in the fall. The guy went 5-7 last year despite being hamstrung by a litany of handicaps beyond his control. He's a good coach who wants to be here. I expect 6 wins this season. Which is like 8-9 wins for a respectfully funded program. Infocision is a resource. I think it could be filled to 18-20 k on average and make money even with the University's football acumen and historical shortcomings. But it's easier to say "I wouldn't have built that stadium" and be off the hook. Goodrich has only been around a short while. He hasn't done anything stupid yet, so I have a some hope that he can at least get football pointed in the right financial direction. We'll see...

Isn't that kind of the problem though? Kaulig obviously gifts a substantial sum, but it's nowhere near enough to be competitive in the MAC. More help is clearly needed.

i want Jaquay Randolph

Heisman really got the donors out for the Day of Giving in 1894. Oddly, I haven't received an email, text or call about this year's Day of Giving.

To be fair, Matt Kaulig isn’t donating via the Day of Giving. I think football gets a decent share of donations outside of today. I donated to football today, and my 💵 increased the total football amount by 50%!

Probably starts with leadership at the top. If you go to basketball (both mens and womens), soccer, and several other sports you will see coaches contributing. With Groce gone, I'm fairly certain Joe is the highest paid University employee. I don't see him nor his staff donating. Hard to tell others to donate if you aren't leading by example. Edit: Also, props to Gensler for donating to the Rowdies.

Unlikeable coach, losing program, lost the Wagon Wheel to an interim/1st year HC... shouldn't be a surprise.

Wow - just looked again, even the band is out fundraising them 4 to 1...

By “so far” do you mean since 1893?

Would definitely be an intriguing addition.

Football struggling with donations so far

One would have to think the last scholarship will go to PF or a SF that can play the PF spot. I would expect to see White or probably more likely Pence play PF for stretches of the game. Just not sure I would want them there for 30 mpg.

Would imagine only 1 spot remains. We're at 13. The next would be 14, and I would bet Akron goes Walk On for the 15th spot (go find the next Freeman/Evan Wilson/Halligan). Pence & White slot into more of a Wing role on this roster, giving us some really nice depth and balance. Look at the height! Barre 6'10" Burton 6'10" Christion 6'9" MMK 6'6" White 6'6" Pence 6'6" Halligan 6'5" Henderson 6'5" Jones 6'5" Head 6'3" Staveskie 6'1" Wilson 6'1" Perkins 6'0" Couple different directions we might go with the final spot... - We're missing a proven sniper. There's a chance Henderson, Jones, Perkins, Wilson, or Head prove to be that, but at the moment we don't have a proven ~40% 3P shooter. - Another front court piece would be nice. There's a gap between the 6'6" group and the PFs. A 6'7"-6'8" stretch 3/4 would be incredible. - In a perfect world, we get a stretch 3/4 at the aforementioned height that is also a sniper from deep, although that type of player is like Elmer and already committed to Wisconsin.

Such a big get. 6'6" G that had 23 vs. Wake Forest in the NIT, 13 vs. Auburn in the NIT Final Four, etc. Comes from a winning program. LOVE this signing.

This is a massive haul for Akron. He is projected as a HM start/mid-major all-conference. He's a 2-way player and his game is very well rounded. He is an elite finisher at the rim and dangerous enough from 3. IMO this is this our best signing with Tahj a close second.

He beat PCCC last year. Should be a smooth transition.

Two spots remain. Here's a position breakdown based on what each player what officially listed as: Forwards: Barre, Burton, White, Christion Wings: Halligan, MMK Guards: Steveskie, Pence, Wilson, Head, Perkins, Henderson, Jones
