Interesting NYT Article on developing trend of athletes giving back to their colleges:
1) gotta love Draymond Green, and Izzo . Michigan State one of the only teams not named Nova I can root for, at least a little
2) Other than Randy Foye Foundation, have not heard of others from the Wright era being visible, and none directly tied to the school since Kittles/Tim Thomas. Small sample size but still a little surprising given the 'family' emphasis, unless we just don't hear about it
3) Surprised to see the dysfunctional program mess that is JT III led Georgetown, having success in this area.
4) Add this topic to the growing list of hurdles for small schools like Nova trying to hold serve v the vast resources of the bigs (ie should some protocol develop for NBA players to be expected to give back).
5) One more reason a professional athletic director is key, Jay and team make it easy, but you still need a closer. Hope we got one!
