Mark Richt donating $1 million of his own money to the U of Miami!

[Duo]

What can you say about a guy that loves his alma mater more than money! He is following in the footsteps of his mentor.........Bobby Bowden.

Miami still needs about 500 more million dollar donations and then they will be on the way to closing the facilities gap between the Canes and FSU & Florida.

True..........but, nothing like leading by example.

When you make millions of dollars per year and only manage to win about
60% of your games, the guilt must start setting in. So you give a little back.

Interesting point, just curious.....how much did big Charlie give to ND?

Good for him. I think Osborne gave back and not that it matters, given what went down, paterno too. Charley is certainly an example of someone who should have, ( essentially stole 18mm from the school he attended). Curious to know what other coaches gave back

Why does it have to be ND, how about special needs kids/adults?

I'm no lawyer, but I'm pretty sure signing a legal contract, agreed upon by both parties, is not stealing as has been alleged. The contract might have hurt a few sensitive feelings but it's not theft. And now Charlie has to match up with Mark Richt in the sainthood competition just to try and prove a pointless debate? "Hannah and Friends". Ring a bell? Dollar for dollar, what have you done? And here it comes.........

I probably wouldn't characterize Charlie's situation as stealing because ND was willing to pay the price. "Backing up for one's paycheck" might be more appropriate.

Maybe I misread the topic, but I thought we were talking about Mark Richt.
