TM has accidentally(?) done something very sly with how he's handled fundraising. While most school's AD work hard twisting coach's arms to fundraise hard, TM has (for the most part) ignored fundraising. In doing so, athletics carries a very small fund raising total, and so, athletic boosters hold less sway over the institution! That is true. In over 30 years, I have only been asked once to contribute to the football program. Although I'm uncertain if it was done intentionally to neutralize the boosters or done out of apathy for on field success.

There is a campaign currently running on GoRedFoxes.com. The goal is to obtain 500 athletic donors by June 30th. Nice video and they have obtained 328 donors and $107K so far. Athletics Campaign

I have heard it is for merit bonus for TM. Nah. It’s to pay an executive search firm that specializes in collegiate sports management and to boost the salary range for the next AD search.

Pitino in the espn article "And I'm sure Iona is going to have, in the future, NILs like everybody else. But I have a terrific team coming back -- [Walter] Clayton [Jr.], Daniss [Jenkins], Nelly [Junior Joseph], Osborn [Shema] -- four starters are returning, I have two or three guys coming off the bench...they look scary good if no one enters the portal ..

Making that decision is not unlike decided to donate to Marist Athletics with TM still in charge. Part of you believes it the right thing to do, but doing so leaves you with the feeling that you’ve just helped to compound a problem.
