It’s never enough…..you mean asking to have Top 45 NIL money is “never enough.” Or making the same salary as Barry Odom at Purdue. Don’t worry it’s never “the fans” fault for failing to do their part.
Matt Campbell to Penn State??

The biggest problem is that you are poor. Stop being poor and get rich. Then you can get us where we need to be.
Or spend $200 total and do both.
Almost as if Purdue has some built-in advantages that we don't that allow them to do those things. Wonder what that might be, just can't quite put my finger on it.
Not all of them do maybe 20% of the fan base provided 95% of the money to keep the operation going.
ISU fans are a thrifty bunch
Some because they are financially forced into that situation. Others because they are just choose to be. The first group I get it. The second group are a mystery.
I don't think BC is blaming the fans. It's just reality and it's not football specific. If many of us were chasing a dream, working 100 hrs a week, and believe we can attain it with a 50-75% salary increase to boot, we'd consider bouncing.
I personally don't blame anyone for giving or not giving or choosing to give to something else. We're all in a different spot in life. But there's no reason to shoot the messenger telling a hard truth.

"Does anyone not understand that as a fanbase we need to stop being so cheap?"
Definitely not blaming fans, lol.
Do you people have families or obligations at all?
ISU fans can be stingy, I don't think many people would argue against that. At the same time, the schools with all the money have enough people with FU money that irrationally will do whatever financially is necessary to win. Iowa State doesn't have too many of those types and they are what drives the big numbers. I don't know how else schools like LSU have a couple hundred million to burn other than having enough high wealth people who are determined to spend to win at most any cost.
I sold my family into slavery in order to make a contribution to We Will. That is the kind of dedication and sacrifice our fans are required to make if we want to remain competitive.
It's almost as if people have different priorities and sometimes that priority isn't making sure 19 year old kids get six figures to play a game in the laundry I like.
I slept with Kate Upton last night. Was paid handsomely. I feel gross this morning but anything for Matt Campbell.
ISU doesnt have enough 6 figure donors to athletics compared to other schools.....How many do we have compared to other schools ?
I don't think it's as simple as "blame the fans" to simply state that our fan base is notoriously cheap (we are) and Matt is very much underpaid (his is).
