Why we all should give to Yosef

[Appstate88]

This is what a grass roots movement is all about and how we will grow our financial base at App State. Students want their football!

Last night at the Rock.

Spot on 88. Maybe I missed this in the past but this looks impressive! I think there’s something close to 5000 freshman this looks like 10000. I think everyone is starved.

Saw these tweets last night...Nothing could knock the smile off my face.

Can’t Wait!!

GO APPS!!

The original seating on the west and east side was 5000 each. The next addition made the stadium seat 17,500. This image does in fact look like about 10K. If so the student section this fall will be woefully small!

Only thing I dislike about these is they are teaching the freshmen that God awful Viking clap...

Do they chant Skol on 4th down?

I thought the same thing that needs to disappear. So long and awkward

[ASUchipman]

Not a fan of the clap thingy.

[Appstate88]

I’m glad we had like 5-6k students in the West side of KBS.

Yeah that looks terrible and they all look disinterested. Also do we really need to teach people how to clap along to that song..

I have not seen one person provide positive feedback for that entrance/chant/whatever it is they call it. But, for some reason, it is still being pushed. It is absolutely awful!

I saw this chart for the first time today. Maybe everyone has seen it and I just overlooked it before, but I thought it was interesting



There are a whole lot more $2500-$3499 members than I imagined.

There are a whole lot less <$100-$499 members than there should be! All of us that are above that level need to encourage other Alumni to get in the game by giving something even if they decide not to purchase season tickets.

Seriously though who was in charge of that pep rally, cheer teaching event at KBS and have they ever been to an App game?

SOO cringe, as the kids would say.

[goapps93]

Some of y'all draw an awful lot from 25 seconds worth of video footage. Great to see KBS full of students.

[Gonzo]

I only meant the SWOL cheer attempt was cringe. I enjoyed the rest, love the concept, and enjoyed seeing the crowd.

[Appstate88]

Student Yosef Club is stepping up.... This is how we do it. Go APPS!

Has anyone seen an updated version of this chart please?

Levels 1-8 = 815 donors or 25% of the YC membership
Levels 9-13 = 2476 donors or 75% of the YC membership
While the top of the line donors are a big boon, it's obvious that the $1000-1499 level and lower are much easier on folks budget, especially if they go the monthly draft route.

Still..............about 135K alumni and only 3291 are YC members? I get that some give to the general fund and that's really great. What about the ones who don't give anything?

What would the YC look like if half that number donated $25/month?
(135,000 / 2) x 12 months x $25 per month = $20,250,000 a year, on top of what's already pledged/donated.
What if $25 per month is too much; what would $10/month look like?
(135,000 / 2) x 12 months x $10 per month = $8,100,000 a year.

If we're going to remain a FBS school, maintain our standards of excellence on the fields and courts, and fully fund our athletic teams the alumni base must accept that with all that comes a financial commitment. As one of my favorite coaches, Coach Jim Brakefield would say: "It's just that damn simple."
