Zlinedavid Posted April 16 Report Share Posted April 16 1 minute ago, IUALUM03 said: The AD. He's probably involved also, but if I'm giving money to a basketball program, I'd sure as hell want a basketball coach talking to me, not just an administrator. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think the coach is leading the charge on fundraising behind the scenes, then I don't know what to tell you. Yes, the coach is giving his time to shake hands, make appearances, etc., but the AD is the person that doing the real work. It ain't Woody or any coach for that matter. They just show up where and when they are told, although obviously there are probably some personal relationships there in some instances. That has been well-established this past will-he-or-won't-he be our coach next year event a month or so ago.

There is a level of involvement between "leading the charge" and "someone else does that". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the 70s, they used to call Steinbrenner's Yankees the best team money can buy... Doesn't tarnish those 2 World Series trophies one bit... No. But it makes the A's 3 titles and the Reds 2 more impressive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
