A bit odd .... have to wonder why. The LBs played well late last year - they showed progress.

Someone on this site told me to stop posting how much me and my family donates so I'm not going to list the actual figures but I did have a discussion with Moose.

We were willing to cut back the 2 yearly scholarships we provide to BG athletes as well cancel our 4 seasons tickets in basketball and hockey and 8 for football and use all that to help buy out a certain contract but it wasn't enough. Like others have said BG just doesn't buy out contracts even when people step up and provide financial support.

So we have officially confirmed that Kingston's handout of a contract extension after 9 wins, was a historically awful decision.

I don't think anyone every questioned the idea that Kingston made bad decisions while AD here. I would say that statement could define his entire time here. It is one that we will pay for years into the future on many fronts. If I were not old and overweight I would have done a back flip when he left. From horrible tag lines shoved down out throats to burning bridges within the community to allowing certain areas to overspend and covering with money from others, his tenure was a disaster for BG athletics.

So basically you offered a choice. Keep Coach Roos AND 2 scholarships, 4 basketball season tickets, 4 hockey season tickets, and 8 football season tickets. Or, fire Coach Roos, probably need to pay the new coach more base money, AND lose 2 scholarships, 4 basketball season tickets, 4 hockey season tickets, and 8 football season tickets. I would have turned you down as well. You were not providing financial support, you were robbing Peter to pay Paul, and Paul didn't need paid. Additional financial support would have been CONTINUING your 2 scholarships, 4 basketball season tickets, 4 hockey season tickets, and 8 football season tickets AND providing money for a buy out.

Nice try though.....

Or to put it another way...it sucks to be poor.

The Tiller thing is weird...to just keep throwing that out there after a couple of years when no one involved in that situation is even working here any more seems pointless....like continuously saying Kingston made bad decisions. Yeah he did...he's gone now so,......
