OldFogey

Exactly. And I can assure you, there are donors who are more than happy to help

Duke Silver

To make it clear, if my net worth was $1B+ this would be worth it for me

Projectoor

Not the way a billionaire thinks. Try this instead...

xgbs

2:08pm

Not saying I wouldn't do it this way with my imaginary $1B

Projectoor

I'm fine if someone wants to donate. I just hope AJ gives the right answers

I know $7-9 got tossed around by some talking heads, but the latest I had heard

Agreed. Consider as part of the marketing budget.

I’m sincerely interested in this answer

If someone has enough money where they are willing to donate millions to a school, why would that change

Not saying AJ is MJ, but how much did North Carolina get out of MJ

Cougarclaw

$8-9M

Indy Coug

Anonymous donor or podcast chatter linked on CB about 10 times in the past 4 days?

kccougar

12:16pm

Sat next to the donor on Saturday! He told me the ask is $8/$9MM

ghettomagic

12:19pm

And he got it from a podcast.

kccougar

Going to be some great hotel and survey commercials next year

WorfoSAUR

If he's just after NIL $$$ then I'd pass. If you are going to be making 100X

AJ's dad was hyping it a couple of months ago to public media using those big numbers. He said then to ZAGSBLOG:

Yes, smart business decision. If Lebron James had come to BYU for 8M, the PR

Reasonable1

He’s not probably going to be the next LeBron though

Ghost Pirate LeChuck

cougforever

Yes.... also I highly doubt it is that much

Cougar TD

I don’t

Ghost Pirate LeChuck

Ghost Pirate LeChuck

Archaea

BackPacker

2:17pm

From an investment standpoint, no way. From a fan's standpoint, yes.

coolblue

2:02pm

Thanks ghetto, we appreciate that.

Archaea

2:02pm

If he ends up having an NBA All-Star type career, 9 million would be a bargain

$4-5M might be closer to the truth
