Message: [QUOTE="AckermanAve, post: 4649779, member: 8943"] There's almost 800,000 people in Onondaga, Cayuga, Oswego, and Madison Counties combined. Layer in fans from other areas that don't have a major college team nearby (Rochester, Buffalo, Albany). Then layer in alumni from all over the country/world and you're looking at a sizeable potential donor pool. Obviously not everyone is willing/able to give money to this type of thing, but I think with more effort the collectives could generate a sizeable amount of donations in the $5 - $100 range. They should also go after the big fish for the large donations. I don't know what kind of marketing the collectives are doing, but the only time I've personally heard/seen an advertisement is Jim Boeheim's radio ad that ran on ESPN radio - Syracuse. I doubt that's reaching too many people. I personally listen to ESPN radio like 1 time a month. [/QUOTE]
