God bless them, but will they even get to $50,000?
This is all starting to feel grimy. I'm fine with people making the monthly donation - $25, $50, $100... whatever you can afford - but are we going to do this every year on top of that just so Kenny Johnson doesn't go to Penn State and we can get some half-decent P5 linebacker over Purdue?
I know some of you say you won't watch if we're no longer playing big time college football, but I'm more than ready to cede into a league with more reasonable peers if this bid-a-thon isn't quelled. I don't need to watch Pitt max out at 6-6 simply because our alumni base is smaller than many others. Figure out a way to pay these dudes with the insane TV money being shoveled in.
