With heather and the “ large donors” must have been a hoot . Rolled by 20 by an awful team . Ps. PGT guy was a huge fan of Dixon contrary to the bs on this site he did t run off Dixon .keep trying

How much money could the PGT guy have? I mean this guy is like our biggest/most visible donor and yet he owns a relatively small trucking company? He cant be worth more than 10 or 20 million which is peanuts compared to large donors at other schools
Don’t know his total wealth . I know this for sure. Jobbers on this site constantly blame him for running off Jamie . He was and still is friends with Jamie . Go find another whipping boy and start with” the other Gallagher
Dang, maybe I should start SMF Trucking.
Maybe set you sites lower - like some sort or gainful employment
You should do a little more research about PGT lol and how much money you can make running a trucking company for 50 years.
More generally, though, if I’m cultivating athletic donors, give me trucking magnates, car dealership owners, and those types of folks every single day of the week over the hedge fund and real estate billionaires.
I was thinking SMF Coaching Search & Athletic Dept. Consulting, LLC.Maybe set you sites lower - like some sort or gainful employment
Slogan: You Fire 'em, We Hire 'em, You Fire 'em Again.
no one ran of jamie, jamie ran off jamie. anyone blaming this on some wealthy donor is irrelevant and should be ignored.
Good idea!

Dunlap mentioned on the FAN this morning that he knows at least one large donor wants Capel out. I'm not sure what he actually knows, and I'm sure most would have assumed that to be the case anyway. But I think things are pretty ugly behind the scenes. This is already well past the point of "not going to end well." It's really just a matter of when.
Even useless bostick can’t put a smiley face on this dumpster fire .,The donors with the real muscle like Sammy D are not shrinking violets
Gallagher (the trucking co one) is extremely wealthy, and he's not the only heavy hitter that wants a new coach.
he's worth several hundred million.
First off, Pat Bostick is a good guy and is quickly becoming the face of AD Development. So useless is not a word I associate with Pat. Second….Sammy D. Is a nothing when it comes to “real muscle.”
Bwh… Any idea how many season tickets we sold this year? Were the numbers we announced each game really the number of tickets sold?
Ok who are the real donors with juice who can fund a buy out ? And do t say tepper lol
No, the numbers announced they announced were completely made up. They weren't tickets sold because there's no way we sold 7000 tickets.
Day to day ops you’re thinking. Investments in buildings, property, real estate and investments in general.
I’m a season ticket holder . Other than duke the upper bowl had few. The lower bo wasn’t half full the zoo maybe one third
Like that would be something unknown big donors would want put out there. There are people that have sway other than Pat Gallagher. Sammy D isn’t one of them. They are just never mentioned or known to the public.
I was at the UMBC game and counted the fans. There were about 980 but the students were on break
Start with parking attendant or drive through planner. Chick-fil-A might have an opening to assist with solving those pesky long lines.
Not been to a game but Heard Sammy D may not be sitting courtside any more. And don't believe he had the juice just hung out with people who did.
SMF Consulting's drive-through infrastructure planning. I like it.
He was always with Dr. Barber. I’m not sure if Dr. Barber is still as involved as he used to be or not.
Well I am told by a donor who sits on the floor that Jamie and PGT Gallagher were and remain close . So deal with it .
im having martinis with some big boosters and the AD at Olive Or Twist this friday happy hour to discuss the impending plans for the on campus football stadium, i'll ask them what they know..
You had Tom Crean 4 spots ahead of Capel.Good idea!

You think Capel is a better coach? Cream was in a rugged league and was killing it at IU for awhile
Crean went from what appeared to be a future star coach. Than he just became a very strange dude.
Guy married into the Harbaugh family - it was only a matter of “when” he turned weird.
Well Pitt did run him off .
Dixon met with the new bosses -
They told him they weren’t committed to him long term .
He knew it was time to take one of those offers he’s been getting for a decade
He told them He had another offer
They panicked and tried to hold him
Dixon realized they didn’t actually mean it - so took the offer
My understanding is he sold something having to do with logistics to Amazon when they were moving toward their own shipping for nine figures.
That makes more sense. I have a hard time believing a local/regional trucking company owner could have close to pro sports team owner wealth
