The Athletic Department should be independent and the academic side should figure out a way to succeed without the AD's support each year.
If your neighbors house was on fire and you had the ability to help extinguish the fire would you help?
What if, in a freakish coincidence, you had a neighbors house catch on fire every year and, through good planning and good fortune, you were able to help extinguish it, would you help?
Would you help or would you watch it burn to the ground while screaming, "the original architect of your house should have built it better"?
Of course, if you chose the latter you wouldn't be out any money or effort to help save your neighbors house; unfortunately, you would now live in a neighborhood full of burned out useless homes.
Doesn't it seem the wiser move to help prevent the fire in the first place? I think the gift from the A.D. to the school is a prudent move to help prevent the fire before it starts.
