Then you are part of the problem. What bothers me the most is people who complain about the situation at UB, but have done nothing (donated nothing) to help improve it. You can donate to UB Athletics and designate the money for anything that you want, other than NIL. You want to set up a NIL group, speak with UB to do it the right way and start raising funds for NIL purposes.

Because the additional revenue from the AAC will not come close to covering the additional expenses for the travel.

Only about 50 behind the UConn women.

Money for NIL is for NIL. Travel and buy games are expenses for the school. Schools cannot pay NIL money. As to your question at the end the answer is, no. I think that other for years when a donation has been made for a major infrastructure project has been made, athletics has not received $4,000,000.00+ in donations in total, let alone for basketball alone.

Bearden played under both coaches.

What does a coach's salary have to do with NIL? Schools do not pay NIL money.

Just got an email from Athletics. The Spring Game is April 27th. That is what you get for working and trying to listen to an online call.

I think the coach said that it is tentative for April 20th.

They flew for certain games with Coach Jack.

Northern is the longest and Ball State is the second longest trip.

For those looking for an edge on betting the Super Bowl Sunday, the team that scores the most points at the end of the game is 57-0.

The money for me wining and dining others comes from my hard work. I have not made one comment on here about the continuation of Mark Alnutt as AD. Nor have I commented on whether any coach should keep their job. It is not that I am indebted to any of them for anything. It is out of respect for them as people who have families and the relationships that I have because I have met and know them. I have never asked for the Athletic Department to hire or fire any coach or administrator. That is not my role. I am a donor and have been one for over 40 years and hopefully will be for another 40 years. What I get is what any donor can get. Jealous? Then go https://ubbulls.com/sports/blue-white-fund and donate. Now please go back to your Rapids thread, I think they just got a turnover and are on a fast break for a layup that you have yet to post about.

The decision has nothing to do with professional or amateur status of the students. It just makes them employees. That creates many issues outside of the right to be in a union. UB Law School is working on a blog post on the decision. Should be up by next week at the latest.

The NCAA does not pay for the luncheon. It is paid for by the sponsors of the game. Private equity in college athletics will be the end of college athletics except for possibly a dozen schools. The rest all lose money, which private equity does not like.

I do not remember. Total cost to UB for me at the Dollar General Bowl, $0.00. I paid for my airfare, rental car and hotel. Same in Toronto, Boise, the Bahamas and Montgomery.

It is sort of buried in the anti-trust exemption given to the NFL to allow its television deals. The NFL cannot play on Fridays or Saturdays until after, what is now the Army-Navy game. It was put into the law to protect college and high school football from being destroyed by the NFL on television in the late 1960s. The new NFL Black Friday game is played right on the edge of the protected time slots for college and high school time slots.

I believe it has to do with television. College games are to be played on Saturday, unless "moved" for television.

The Pegula donation to start hockey at Penn State was $88,000,000.00. That was 14 years ago. I do not know how much the Murchie family is worth, but that may be beyond their ability.

In a case involving Dartmouth the NLRB said yes. The decision does not impact UB, as UB is not subject to the National Labor Relations Act. https://apps.nlrb.gov/link/document.aspx/09031d4583c5ebe4

Would you hire back a person to your company who when they left, while still your employee, was seen promoting a competitor? That is what Hogdson did. I would not rehire that person.

Hockey was looked into years ago. It was too expensive and there would need to be either the addition of women's sport(s) or dropping of existing men's sport(s). The cost has not gone down since the last time it was looked at.

That will really help get the students come to games, moving them downtown. Why not just reinstall the six or seven rows roll up bleachers in Clark Hall and play there again. It would make it easier for the public to go to games, as there are many people who live walking distance from the Main Street Campus.

There have been coaches with higher base wages than Tripathi.

Every team, including football has been doing this for about five years. It is also becoming standard at many athletic departments across the country. I made my donation already as well. If you are going to make a donation please see if you can add $0.47 to it to honor Watson's school record 47 point game last Saturday.
