Is this Dax?
Or maybe certain donors will contribute more after seeing how the Athletic Department responded to the situation, as well as seeing how the team came together as one in support of each other. Maybe some major donors aren’t racists. Just a thought.

I think this election year will be different thanks to voter empowerment by schools and communities with big schools like manhattan in them.6yeah lost in this discussion was the coaches helping players register to vote and connecting them with resources to research candidates. They seem like great people.https://themercury.com/k_state_sports/why-k-state-football-is-spending-friday-helping-players-register-to-vote/article_d7414ff1-f330-5fdb-bc21-c526feb3c8a2.html

Imagine if this turned k-state into a hotbed of diversity and inclusion?

Come on. Pretty damn naive to think that some amount of donors and alum won't adjust their donations (and attendance) negatively if many of the suggestions in this thread get through as practice.

No one will be booing anything, most people don't think negatively about black lives matter, they are just too comfortable to do anything to help solve these problems.

These are college graduates. these are hard working people. these are church going people. Depending on how KSU chooses to promote BLM at games i can almost promise you they will boo depending on how it is fed to them. But i am hoping they will feel just enough uncomfortable in front of so many others that they might stay quiet and bitch on their way home

Really students at all, just bending over backwards for athletes who make a scene.
