Please do not speak of truth. Neither you, myself, or anyone else is a mind-reader. You can only speculate about the nature of the truth here, you cannot know it.
I was at the game and this was a very brief moment when Boyken kneels down to acknowledge her. There's no way he or anyone else would have anticipated someone catching a perfect photograph of it, and it then going viral. Then to suspect the worst intentions when some inspired TCU fan takes the initiative to contact friends of the girl's family and set this thing up.
Take off the black hat man. This is all good.
Well this thread has taken a turn.
Kudos to Boykin for what he did. More Kudos to TCU fans for what they did though. After all the Kid Captains both our programs have had, has any opposing player/fans done something this? I can't recall any happening here.

Pretty sure he's saying that you're an ***-hole. And I bet you are a blast at parties.
I assume he's not talking about boykins actions, but what's come from it. And he's not wrong.
this is great for the family though, I even donated.
$20,000+!
Word is the family felt a bit uncomfortable with how quickly and how much was raised and asked the organizer to not raise the goal again once the campaign surpassed the $15,000 mark. Knowing how significant the future expenses will be, the organizer is trying to convince the family to accept the support, but in the event they do not, there's discussion that the balance will be redirected to the children's hospital or a CP/children's charity.

Heh, what would you know about a good party. You're coming after the arena of my one and only strong point here.
In all seriousness, I get why you all jumped on what I pointed out. The reality is, I was never negative about the idea and I didn't come after anyone no matter how naive and childish I felt they were being, I just feel that the underlying plan of this trivializes an otherwise important and sad situation.
I'm glad the family is receiving the help we would all plead for in that situation. While the sincerity may not be exactly where one would hope, you can't argue against results.

It would be great to see any additional funds to go to Blank Children's hospital. There is a kid captain at every home ISU game, all who have received services at Blank for a variety of issues. What a great showing by fans! Thanks for the updates.
People like you make me sick. Go away. Why do you have to take a nice story and make it into your little conspiracy theory. You are just plain dumb.
