I certainly don't want my money back. The money is for the program and the school. Screw Pat Kelsey. I feel for Ryan. He did it the right way and got burned by this guy. Karma is a bitch. This will work it self out. Too bad it went down like this. Better to find out now and move forward. Trying to stay positive.

Go UMass!

For sure, I feel for Ryan. Did everything by the book, knocked it out of the park, and got burned. I truly believe everything happens for a reason and we are better off knowing this now than moving forward with a Head Coach that is already trying to move on. #HireCaputo

LMAO fragile Pat. That nailed it.

Bamford is not to blame, just a guy who doesn't know how to keep his word.

Is this actually just the name for a push on court club? Seems to have all the same donation levels.

Since you're new to UMass Athletics, no, this is not the same as the Court Club. This is a one time fundraising push to go along with the new coaching hire, same as they did with the new coaching hire for Hockey.

Made my donation between PK and MM eras. PK really exceeded my expectations.

Bamford mentioned a 3-week promotion for those who renewed or bought season tickets, I assume those of use who bought them under Kelsey and stayed on will be entered automatically?

They will be issuing a new promo and all who have put down their deposits will be entered, that's what I was told when I reserved my seats on Monday.

That's what I thought just weird to use the names of all the same donation levels. Also glad to see you still are busy proving who you are.

We need to get this thing moving. If you have donated, great. If not and you plan to, do it. If you can't afford to donate, spread the word on social media. It would be great to hit the goal, but it is going to be tough. 28 donors to date is pretty sad.
