Had lunch with our Bulls Club guy today.  Some of the 50% isn't cash money. Promised money and cash in bank aren't the same it appears.  So hopeful is a good word.

Yeah, my donation of 4.6 million in Pub-Subs isn't exactly liquid.

Exactly where I thought we would be.  Still a long ways off barring some kind of major gift.  I don't think we hit that target date unless we have a big time season (Conference title and a big time bowl).

That is so frustratingly sad if it turns out you're correct .....

We've been fund raising for what a couple years now?  Considering our donation numbers historically we're probably approaching blood from a stone territory unlesss the team does something to energize the fan base.   The program has a ton of good energy around it since the end of last season now the team needs to go out and do their part.

Those don't matter.  I've been told this several times.

6-7 with wins over BYU, Wisconsin, and GaTech will surely energize the donor base....

We need some excitement, conf title, UW and GT wins, do something better than a 38-10 loss to UCF, we are not Alabama but need a reason to send money to the alma mater, win the conference or lose the conference but have a complete year and excite the fans to pull out the wallet.  Winning does cure everything, we want to be a part of something special.  Ok with being red on the head but can’t continue to be the stepchild

You are correct, winning is key. Did you see what ucf just raised for athletics?

“The last fiscal year included $31.7 million dollars committed from 7,519 donors and $13.6 million in gifts received. All three of those numbers are all-time highs for UCF athletics fundraising.”
