Donors threaten to pull donations if Pearl was fired...

Anyone who does not recognize that Hamilton is one of the top fundraisers in the country is an absolute idiot.

You can try to pick certain tidbits but tv revenue is not why Hamilton raised more in donations than any of his contemporaries. He has raised so much money for facility improvements for revenue and non revenue producing sports.

Its not certain tidbits. It's facts. The football profit is also down in comparison to other schools. What you do is include women's sports when you show how profitable the program is and that it's wrong. And you know its wrong! They have their own AD.

I hope this is a joke. I think it must be. Womens sports are as good at making money as unionized american car manufacturing.

What are you talking about? The measure of an athletic director is how many parking garages he builds.
