The Alumni need to step up! Pure and simple. Please don't tell me that their isn't anyone or group of, oh let's say past football playing Alumni/people to step up and provide some money for the program? In any case, Academics should NOT suffer. I am more interested in knowing where the University will now spend the money allocated for the football program. Use it wisely NU!
