[QUOTE="Augusta_Jacket, post: 532731, member: 1191"] It really depends on how you define "big donors." Our biggest donors, the ones who have historically been reliable on a regular basis, never quit giving. There were a few, though, who while not in the same giving stratosphere as the big dogs, yet are not inconsequential givers, who stopped giving a long time ago. This happened over 8 years ago, prior to the 2014 and 2015 seasons. At least one of these donors, (that I know of), has come back to the table. From my understanding, his issue had less to do with the hiring of CPJ but he was close with CCG and basically protested the firing by shutting off the donations. (None of this was ever said, but it fits the character of the person: fiercely loyal to friends) Now, is it possible that TStan had been working him and he would have come back to the table with CPJ at the reigns? Maybe. I'm doubtful, but TStan is GOOD at repairing relationships with alumni. From what I understood after my conversation with my friend, there are several new donors and a few returning donors that are now coming to the table. On top of this, TStan has been greasing the skids of some of the intermediate donors to try and build a more consistent revenue stream. So, to sum this up TStan has been working to raise more revenue. A goodly portion of this revenue was already committed prior to CPJs announcement. Additional revenue came in because of CPJs announcement for two distinct reasons: 1, a few donors who were less than thrilled with CPJ came back to the table, and 2, regular donors gave more to help secure the best coach and staff possible. Hopefully this clears up the mud a bit. [/QUOTE]
