Is being announced tomorrow. That would put the $$ amount somewhere between George Hyslop and Ralph Engelstad, I believe. Any ideas who and how much? Any guesses?

Guesses>>

Beet farmer? Phil Jackson with the stipulation the name and logo be changed? Foreign country thankful for the great pilots we're sending back to them? Eddie Belfour with the stipulation the name and logo be kept?

I say it's Dirty with the stipulation he gets Section 107, Row 1, seats 1-4 in REA (all events) for the rest of eternity.

Yo 'Dog, (I've been just waiting to get a chance to say that :) ) where'd you hear about this announcement for tomorrow?

My best guess would be Rydell. I know that he already gives very generously to UND. Although I've never met the man, I've heard that they don't come much better.

Sic, would this take care of the cost part of the cost and conference question?

The next month could be interesting.

That is a good guess...

I know Wes and Vivian and they are both very good people. I wouldn't be surprised at a big endowment from them to UND but one in the 10s of millions?!?

Do we know if the money is for Athletics specificly?

No, we don't. Now for my speculation (and remember where you read it first)...I'm going with the Estate of Chester Fritz. His widow died about 4 months ago...my darkhorse is Betty Engelstad.
