[QUOTE="Ransom Stoddard, post: 1954478, member: 10336"] I wish I could find statistics on IFund and other DIA giving for those years, because my anecdotal experience tells me it dropped sharply in 2007 from 2006. The former high-roller donor that I kind of know told me that Zook correlated the drop in giving to the drop in success of the team following the Rose Bowl year. Personally I think that's a load of crap and that Zook (like Weber) couldn't capitalize on his success. I'm starting to come around to Blocky. It's dumb, but dumb in all the right ways like Stanford's Tree, and it's better than a Kingfisher costume that looks like a bluejay. [/QUOTE]
