I've been hearing for a month or two that he is no longer donating to our program/RTC. Anybody know the details? Is he still funding the National Duals?

As I've said from day one, the program needs to get what it can from that pipeline as quickly as it can. At some point, someone is going to make him mad, and he will stop.
Yes, it is nice to have and I agree that a guy with his mentality could get cross with another person of similar mentality. However, he is on somewhat of a mission to return the state of Oklahoma to the top of the sport, so his barometer for BS may be a little higher than usual.

Also, we are doing really well raising money. Would it hurt, yes, any negative line item isn't good, but we're still pretty healthy! Also, he's all good right now, so it a moot point and it does need to stay that way.

So you know for a fact he has not stopped, cut back, or pulled out on anything to OSU or RTC? I hope I'm wrong and you're right, but I definitely have heard different. That would be great if he hasn't.

John has done a great job getting David and the donors together so fundraising should be/is good regardless of Richison. The success and spotlight have people excited.

Yes, I am sure.

It's awesome that you share a rumor and then when someone tells you it isn't true you ask if he knows for a fact.

You obviously didn't know for a fact when you started this rumor, but you want to hold him to that standard.

Have you heard any updated information on the new facility? Thanks!!
Not really, but I haven’t asked or anything. I’m just having fun enjoying the trajectory and ride.

When something pops up that could be damaging, I ask. If there’s stuff that’s desired to be put out, I’m told.
