Dr Harrison told my father out of his own mouth he'd offered UGA a significant contribution towards UGAA. Asked that it be spent immediately on new construction/renovation and that his family be given some preferential parking and a suite for the foreseeable future. He wasn't happy with the answer back and MCG got the lot. (76 million)



There you go. UGA admins want the money with no strings attached. And frankly, Dr. Harrison likely made the more beneficial choice regardless. There are plenty of more worthy ways to invest 76 million than in UGA football......

Yea, I can't argue with him. Would have no problem giving UGA athletics some but if I was giving a ton of money, it'd be primarily to the academics side of UGA and MCG. That money he gave is going to help MCG a lot with offering scholarships (and they really need more of those). Sounds like MCG was fine with there being strings attached too because I'm pretty sure Dr. Harrison was pretty specific with how it could be used.
