I don't want get into the weeds on this and I was a little confused by it all too and that's not the topic of this thread or my discussion. The point was they thought there was "inequity/injustice" of no action and I don't know that you can equate the firing of football coach no matter how incompetent to whatever the hell they may have been feeling either perceived or real.

Here you go knuckle head. Rutgers is listed in the GOFUNDME database as a certified charity. This donation is tax deductible.
What is your response now?
If any school listens to a few 2 bit donators starting a dumba$$ fund then they deserve what they get. I agree with what they are saying and I don't care how much money is raised they should not take it plain & simple. It sets a bad precedent and is a form of extortion and quite frankly schools should in turn seek legal action against the fools that started it. I don't know if this a first but it sure won't be a last
Don't see that anywhere.
If that's the case, we will have 8 planes circling the stadium on Saturday with fire Flood banners.
I agree with the spirit of the campaign. But, the last thing Rutgers Football needs is more negative publicity.
Fine. Then we start another campaign unaffiliated with the RUF and re-donate what we've all put in that. This needs to keep going.
Update is at the top of the article

Oh man, this keeps getting better and better. We got absolutely everything we wanted out of that campaign. It was all about awareness and reaching the top guys. Obviously it did.
Now everyone gets their money back, and we can divert it to PHASE 2.

Sorry..phone wasn't letting me copy link..but someone provided.
I'm more convinced we need a whole new administration. I'm done with games this season..and it sucks!

Flying the Death Star over the stadium on Saturday
Time to join @kyk1827 and hire a fire Flood plane this Saturday.
Hopefully that death star is also displaying a Fire Flood banner.
This was a silly thing. Of course, the university had to state that this is not endorsed by Rutgers. Someone not affiliated with Rutgers was collecting money on their behalf.
And any potential coach will say..... " I'll pass on that Rutgers job. I may have a year when I need to start 3 freshmen in the secondary, lose my best DT for the year, best WR for multiple games and I don't want the fans turning on me and starting campaigns to get me fired "..... :boxing:
I think part of the issue is that the money being donated goes to the Foundation under the pretense of it going to fund the firing of the coach.
If Rutgers isn't firing Flood, then the money could not be returned because thats why it was donated in the first place.
Then those that donated will complain they donated to remove the coach and he wasn't removed, and the monies were used elsewhere.

That will definitely make a statement..but won't help the money issue..which seems to be the block.

Probably another just as stupid and embarrassing venture.
Should have recruited better. We are playing in the same division of a team that was down to the 3rd QB and still won the national championship. Want to play with the big boys start recruiting and caoaching like them.
