One difference between Rutgers and USF

[Brad]

Two Rutgers alumni (one anonymously) have donated $5 million for the new 7,656 square-foot football recruiting lounge and welcome center in the south end zone of expanded Rutgers Stadium. The facility will be named the Brown Football Recruiting Lounge and Welcome Center in honor of co-donor and 1982 Rutgers graduate Greg Brown, president and co-chief executive officer of Motorola Inc...

takes time to amass these types of sums and folks who care enough about the program

We have quite a few, actually. I expect to see a spike in posthumous USF donations within the next 10 years or so, as our wealthier alumni start passing on to the great beyond.

Let's not forget Rutgers had a 128-year head start on playing football.

[BULLfreak]

they also had a 190 year head start as a College.

Just to show how new we are as a school let alone a Football program

UConn  started in 1881 - 75yrs before USF

RU 1766 - 190 yrs

UC - 1819 - 137 yrs

WVU - 1867 - 89 yrs

SU - 1870 - 86 yrs

UL - 1798 - 158 yrs

Pitt - 1787 - 169 yrs

I think once some alumni who spent their usf time with football team get older, donations will become much more common.

Gotta get over this economy thing too.

[twillybull]

Gotta remember there is lotsa mob money in Jersey.
