Tin foil hat and not even sure if this is allowed but it wouldn’t shock me if CMC and Otz each put up 100k or something. This impacts their jobs more than anyone else and maybe they just wanted a kickstart. Wild guess but interesting to think about

Interesting but I don’t think they can donate because they are Iowa State employees. But maybe they can.

Not sure if that is a good idea or allowed.

Kudos to whoever donated the $200k and those who participated in the match drive.

We should do it again around Thanksgiving and in February/March :)

My fault.
I donated earlier this year and IDGAF if you ever said thanks.
We Will, ISU, and fans are lucky to have open, honest, and fiscal guys like you/Pollard when it comes to this stuff.

There's been some anti We Will stuff and I don't get it. If people don't want to donate, don't do it.

You've kept a cool head with a lot of responses on here, I appreciate it. I'm sure sometimes it feels thankless and exhausting.

I cannot believe how hostile some people are to Blum/about the collective on here. If you don’t like the system and what it’s turned into, then fine. I don’t like it either but it’s the reality we live in.

I didn’t mean to be personal to Blum. I assume if people are negative, it has more to do with looking at other collectives and seeing them led by pretty big time executives of companies. Guys that are probably in position to make sizable contributions themselves but certainly are in position to solicit big time money from big time people. I have no problem with the effort of We Will but frustration is with hearing we’re in the bottom 10%. That will catch up to us.
