I started to repeat myself after reading all the comments....time to let it go.

The $40 Mil would be for the Dorm that is in front of the Athletic part. App State would need to get the money for the Athletics part or offer it for used by other parts of the university.
That's what I do. I gripe and I know things.

It's hard to understand some people here.firemoose wrote: ↑Sat Nov 11, 2017 12:54 pmBig difference in paying money OUT to some bogus entity and receiving money. All that money has to clear banks before it can be used.
If older Howard Hughes was around in this time he would be difficult to find on the internet as well. Just think of all the "eccentricities", putting it mildly, that he had. I doubt Mr Ricks is storing his urine in jars.
Can nothing good ever happen without some looking for the bad in a situation? When Don Beaver gave 10 Mil for the new College of Health Sciences (5 Mil up front and 5 willed, which is why Mr Ricks' is the largest single contribution), I don't remember any questioning that. I'm not jumping on anyone but just saying can't we just accept the money, say thank you, and move forward. This is supposed to be a GOOD thing and a big boost to Athletics. Not a conspiracy. I sometimes ask myself why I quit posting or even reading these threads and then I look and it's hits me.
I actually thought everyone would be happy when I hinted at this a few weeks ago. Stupid me I guess.
When will "It's better than what we had" no longer be good enough for App State?

What is the $10m going to be earmarked for? When will it get spent? Anxious to see and hear big things!

Re: Big $$ Announcement Coming
I believe the biggest chunk will go toward a down payment on the North Endzone project. But that still has to work its way through channels.

Only asking this because of the ongoing north end zone thread- did we get this moolah yet?

Re: Big $$ Announcement Coming
IMO it'll be paid on a schedule that'll be strictly between the donor, his financial advisors, the athletic department and the university foundation. The new IRS regs will almost certainly complicate it. It won't be for public disclosure.bigdaddyg wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2018 12:10 pmOnly asking this because of the ongoing north end zone thread- did we get this moolah yet?
If it happens to the Apps, it happens to me!

Re: Big $$ Announcement Coming
As I'm reading it, the new tax law shouldn't be a big deal with this one. Only the portion of a donation that's paid for "the right to purchase tickets" is not deductible.
Of course, when and how he makes his donation is completely up to him. I'm thankful Appalachian is receiving this sort of gift.
If serving is beneath you, then leading is beyond you.

Re: Big $$ Announcement Coming
And I hope he goes through with this. No reason to think he will not, but we do have a short history of putting a name on a building and then removing said name when the $ never appear. This is a bit different of course.
This is my very generic signature added to each post.
