Kris, are you paying attention?

Former USC athlete (swimmer) makes 8 million dollar donation to the athletic department to build a new aquatic center.

I don't know about anyone else, but the Humphries-Kardashian practice facility sounds good to me

I'd rather have Kris & his father offer a lifetime of free burgers & fries for their customers at the Five Guys Burgers and Fries in Dinkytown.

I wouldn't hold your breath. I wonder if Kris even remembers he went to the U?

 

[Gold Vision]

Kris was an excellent youth swimmer, maybe he'll donate money for a new aquatic center too.

+1

Humphries likely has zero attachment to the U or feels any obligation. He basically took one semester of 12 easy credits and then mailed it in his 2nd semester because he knew he was leaving ala Kentucky players this year.

Kris Humphries, Joel Przybilla, and (soon) Royce White should show their love of the U (and repay us for taking up a seat in the classes) by pooling their NBA money to buy us a practice facility.

And Devoe Joseph can chip in part of his NBDL check to buy a vending machine for the locker room.

You're not being a very good homer now, are you?

 

[Gopher Bandanna Guy]

Foret Humphries, Flip Saunders should throw down and help get that practice facility built. He's making good money off the Washington Wizards (4.5 mil/year) to sit at home right now. Time to philantropize up!

Already did by endowing two basketball scholarships to the tune $500,000.

Not expecting any money from Kris.

How much has been doniated to date? Is that public information?

I thought it was $50,000? Two scholarships, each $25,000 a year.

 

[AO54]

With all this billion dollar stadium talk, it seems especially stupid that a team that turns $10 Million annual profit can't get a little help for a $20 Million practice facility. If the basketball team were less successful, the university and the state would have to pick up the slack and pay to maintain the same level of funding for the non-revenue sports . We don't need humphries.

Too late. He already lit that up.

I know. Sorry. I knew I'd made a mistake when Art gave me a "+1."

Nope 500K is right. They yield $50K a year for scholarships.

Ah alright. I must have misunderstood what I read.
