Remind me again, why should I continue giving to TAF?

I like my seats where they are. They've removed all donor incentives. Wouldn't that money be better used given to an NIL collective? Help me out if I am missing something.

Money is needed for programs. If you want programs to continue to produce, poney up. Otherwise shut up when times are bad

I am done. New point system only works for the wealthy donors to buy their way into whatever they want.

Why not IMO.

They promised basketball facility upgrades over 4 years ago to which have never been done. I donated, but very little results. In fact, one of my women's bb seats in the PMAC was broken for over 3 weeks. I had to keep bugging facility personnel to get any action. Apparently, the manufacturing company doesn't make the seats any more. They had to scrounge the replacement from elsewhere.

Naming the court for someone who never made a championship game. Who also was fired for doing something similar to what Wade is alleged to have done.

Firing Wade and draining all life out of the program. Giving a super long-term deal to an unproven mid major coach.

People that are happy with the direction from Woodward, the athletic department, and TAF support for athletics can make up for my unimportant support.

I list these here because it will do as much good as telling one's TAF representative in my experience.

Become an OT baller and you won’t have to worry about it

I'm with you on this. I see not personal benefit to donating anything above the amount my seats require as part of the season ticket purchase.

For me, they need to do three things:

1. Bring my the old bonus point system
2. Bring back facility game day tours, field access
3. Bring back tailgate parties with free beer (PMAC or elsewhere)

Bruh that's how everything in America works. You're at the bottom or top of the totem pole depending on how much you contribute. Want more love from TAF? Empty your bank account to them. Otherwise do as you please but they're going to always favor rich donors.
