As a legacy donor I’m not going to donate anymore until BYU ponies up!

BOT would just shut it down. Less hassle for them. They would just assume

The interest is waning from most donors already

jpal1397

Not me. I just went to legacy 3 this year. I feel the program needs my support more than ever

Interesting thought. When does it get to a point where donors start

I hope your return on investment brings you joy!

jpal1397

I agree. The program needs more support, not less when struggling

So would everyone else. Problem is we don’t see that happening

Kalani has my support as BYU's coach until he's not the coach anymore. And I can comfortably say I speak for most

MaxxPower

Most of your family? Not fans! Kalani has some tough decisions to make fast

jpal1397

Most of the money that supports BYU's athletic department

Strange title for your context. No worries! I’m a big boy 👦🏻

Big assumption there. KS has lost a lot of support.

What is your name andp

What’s that got to do with anything relevant?

jpal1397

10/15/19 11:28am

What is your name and please define “pony up”

cougarnw

10/15/19 7:40am

Curious why his/her name has to do with it?

ReggaeCoug

10/15/19 10:05am

Just think his dramatic declaration would

cougarnw

10/15/19 11:40am

Do you have a list of legacy donors? If not he/she could still just be posing.

Wow! You people are amazing. I sit in legacy chairs on 49 yd line 19 rows up

Knowing who you are doesn't matter.

I helped place nearly half the basketball players on BYU’s teams for 12 years.

jpal1397

I think his name has nothing to do with it. None of us have to put our names on

Go look at the amount of money the football team generates vs gets to keep

jpal1397

10/15/19 11:27am

This is true at every university across the country.

No sir it isn’t. Football keeps their concessions but not at BYU.

jpal1397

10/15/19 3:09pm

no.. the church isn't going to abandon the program

byukarl

10/14/19 11:52pm

I'd rather they shut it down than let it become a pathetic

Until you water your lawn I’m turning off the water main.

How about “if you don’t care enough then why should we?

jpal1397

10/14/19 11:40pm

More like, I'm not handing over my water rights anymore till you actually plant crops.

Ha Ha! They control the main line and they have it about 1/4 open. We have spray

Kalani already makes too much.

There seems to be a great deal of guess work in these posts.

It’s probably easier to simply compare support staff, coaching $, facilities...

ZooBlue

10/15/19 4:45am

It might have contributed to the Coaches on staff who butchered that game

jpal1397

10/15/19 11:32am

my question is, what is the church saving the money for?

BYURider

10/15/19 4:16am

That’s my take as well.. and with the wealth they have now it’s even more

cougfanz

10/15/19 5:18am

UofU law school donations

IceCreamButt

10/15/19 5:34am

The church employees lots of people that they will want to keep employed as long

hydrocoug

10/15/19 6:07am

Temples, churches, missionaries, hurricanes, tornados, floods, to name a few...

loss of tax exempt status?

Colorado

Rodeo grounds, malls, high rise apartments, office building for rent, etc.

jpal1397

Money magically fixes everything. Signed, Charlie Weiss’s Notre Dame contract.

Ikuna

10/15/19 7:09am

I'm not a legacy donor but will still make my contribution

Colorado

10/15/19 8:33am

I also don't think this comes down to lack of investment

Colorado

10/15/19 8:34am

Agree.

The AD’s budget has soared in the last 5-10 years. BYU has significantly

The issue facing the football program is not money, its the BOT.

Some of BYU problems are self inflicted for sure. Image rules!
