I'm going on the offensive.
« on: October 17, 2015, 04:11:29 PM »
Until there is a change to our coordinators, I will spend my week on the phone convincing other donors to not fulfill their construction pledges. I'm already up to $4.3MM in the last 15 minutes.

This is ridiculous.

No I'm going after all donations except required ticket donations. Walking into Intrust Bank suite now.


I'm up to $4.7MM. I think I can probably get to $10MM before the game ends.

Need a change at the top fwiw. Love Bill obv. but he's a figurehead only and we need a HC to actually be a HC.

Got to $8.25ish. Lots of people had already left. Hitting the phones hard this week. Let Currie know your displeasure. Email him daily.

Blackcats,  put together a form letter and circulate here and we can push it on twitter.  Otherwise most of us are too lazy to actually put together a complaint.

It's a stupid idea.  This staff isn't going to be here much longer regardless and the worse we are the less leverage Bill has to push Sean. Make the improvements now and start nudging Snyder into retirement.

I love the zeal but I think it is slightly misplaced. If we're looking for a coach we need as many nice things as possible and no donor revolts against someone like LHC Bill Snyder and his staff, there's a middle ground though.

Why does our athletic director need a donor revolt to do his job? If Currie asks Snyder to make changes to his staff Snyder will quit instead, if we believe the ongoing narrative about him.  Use that $8.25+ mil over Schulz's head to can his AD if he is incapable of doing his job.  If you were able to round up that much money in a few hours I'm guessing you could get a lot more with the AD as the direct target instead of Snyder.

I've already pledged $700 plus some not yet released 2017 NFL rookie trading cards (potentially worth billions in the right market) for the dome phase.

Which one of you beta fuckboi pussies is going to convince me to back down from my pledge (again, literally worth billions, maybe trillions of dollars)? I'm waiting.

Keep in mind, I'm 6'8", 290 lbs. and 9% body fat. I honestly have probably already slept with the cute girl you're squeaming at the thought of saying "hi" to.

All you whining puss cry babies, especially the ones who left before the end of the game can take yor damn money and ram it up your butt and light it.  So we lost a game and got a good stomping.  I am proud to be a true Wildcat.  I will continue to give my money to Bill until he retires or croaks.  He will likely leave soon.   Create an ugly scene now and we will a squirrel shitn coach.

I left in the third qtr when it was obvious we weren't going to do anything the rest of the game.  I was pretty pissed and didn't want to embarrass the fam with what was about to come out of my mouth at the game.  I am holding my everybody needs fired comments until we see what happens in the next coming week or two.  If they don't come up with a  better game plan against the next two, I will be in the burn it down category though.  We knew these were going to be tough.  Still can't understand why we don't run the ball with Silmon behind the fullbacks.  That is our best talent and averages like 6-8 yards every time we do it, but we ran it that way like twice the whole first half and gained good yardage every time.  My Jr high kid sees that, I don't know why our coaches can't.  We would rather try to compete by throwing every down with the worst quarterbacks in college football.
