We won’t need a D. Next year Lebby will have the offense purring and controlling the clock.
If Lebby wants to learn how to eat clock, I suggest he take a drive to Picayune. He might learn a thing or two about what it takes to eat clock.

serious question: Is this money treated like an endowment? If so, what is the maturation date on these donations? Surely, it isn't treated like a bank account and we just do withdrawals.......

Portal opens Monday. Don’t think this gift wasn’t planned to be released the Friday before the portal opens…
Can't remember who it was, but a sixpacker predicted that there would be a big announcement after the egg bowl so that the $3M donation announced before and the subsequent donation could make a nice **** sandwich with the egg bowl being in the middle.

I'm guessing they waited until after signing day to announce this one to make sure the non-portal players didn't think we were rolling in cash and holding back on them.

So do these big donors get any input on how the money is used? Like to go to a certain position, spread it out over "x" years, or just buy the biggest baddest mfer in the portal?

Whenever I donate, I require player-specific MRPs and I choose the ones I want to buy then hold the analysts accountable based on future performance

Bulldog initiative is not taking new donations. It’s all excellence fund now.
