Have they been able to practice?

I'll donate $100 for each win over an opponent with an RPI less than 100 (1-99) but I'm going to deduct $50 for each loss to a team with a 100+ RPI. Right now we're at $50 (beat Richmond but lost to Tennessee-Boondocks). Double down for the post season ($200 per sub-100 RPI win, subtract $100 per 100+ RPI loss).

Could be well over $1,000 if the Dukes step up, there are currently 4 sub-100 teams (8 games) left on our regular season schedule and we could face multiple sub-100 RPI teams in the CAA Tourney and another post-season tourney if we make it. Hell, I'll even throw in a $500 bonus if we win the CAA Tourney. The final results as posted at this site will serve as my system of record.

I like your logic, 2Buck. I gave them $1,000 and it was hard. I didn't know how to do it because at the time they hand't really sent anything out about how to donate and it took over a week to get an email response. Ah well, just keep hammering away I guess.

i saw a tweet later that they held practice in the Memorial Hall gym. Not ideal.

Regardless of whether you support either team - this building needs to be replaced!

yes it can be a fun atmosphere when packed for a big game - but yesterday's commencement should serve as a wake up call to our admin- the building was packed to the rafters and when the fire alarm went off - it took 20 minutes to evacuate the building - NOT ACCEPTABLE!

Had this been an actual fire - there were would be quite a few dead alums and their family.

How it has ever passed muster with the Fire Marshall is beyond me. Anyone who has ever sat down low knows how impossibly long it takes to get out of there after a sellout type game.

Zero dollars given, zero f$&@s given. Nice win today and headed in the right direction, but until Jeff and Jon are gone, my money will stay protected from these idiots.

I empathize with you and your frustration. However, I see virtually no downside to improving our facilities. If we do end up hiring a new AD it's less for him to have to do.

P.s. Bump. Anyone else want to jump on the $5-per-win challenge?

I will also commit to the $5 a win challenge!

Go Dukes!

Count me in. Be a good way to start the new year off in a giving mood.

Yep I can commit to that and say I'll double my donation for each NCAA Tourney win

Also he leaves town quite often. Someone get track of his itinerary and let's send Dadgum an invoice.

Thats right, I forgot that he gets all of his suits at the Kohls in Short Pump.

He DEFINITELY shops online for suits.

The Prez is in Florida right now I believe come to think of it. Dadgum - pay up!
