Someone needs to step up and T. BOONE the Bulls. Or else being left adrift might happen.
In the world of big-time collegiate athletics, individual donors are sometimes the key to success.
Someone that's willing to underwrite whatever is needed for your program to succeed. T. Boone Pickens has given around $500 million to Oklahoma State, about half of it to Athletics. Phil Knight has dropped $300 million on Oregon, and you can see that success across all sports. Drayton McLane Jr. pumped somewhere between $20 and $200 million into the Baylor Bears, and now their facilities are the envy of the nation.
