What constitues "A booster?" What constitutes "A booster with infuence?"

[DBT]

I mean, I could donate a buck and, technically, be a booster. What if I donate $500? I'd expect that I'd be appreciated a little. But not much. So, to have influence to the point that the AD would give a **** about what you think, what would it take? $10K? $100K +?

What is a booster.

CU Compliance wrote a whole chapter on it.

ANY donation counts. In "the scandal that shall not be named" one person once purchased a $25 ticket to an event to support one athletic team and that purchase qualified the individual as a booster - forever.

Q: What does it mean to be a "booster/donor" of CU athletics?[/FONT]
[FONT=Cambria, serif] [/FONT]
[FONT=Cambria, serif] A booster/donor is someone who is a representative of the institution's athletics interests. A booster/donor must abide by pertinent NCAA legislation. If a booster/donor does not abide by NCAA rules, student-athletes' future eligibility may be jeopardized, and any violations may result in severe punishment from the NCAA.[/FONT]

That sort of describes every member of allbuffs...

There was actually a point when I read that a few years back and wondered whether or not I qualified. Since I have so much contact with high school students and athletes - mainly through volunteer work and organizations - I just went right ahead and made a donation to CU. Figured it was better to know for sure I WAS a booster and follow the rules from that point on, than to be in a gray area and screw some kid's chances inadvertantly.

They need a rule like golf. You know, where, if you are a pro, you can get your amature status back.

Why, you give some money to Cam Newton we don't know about?
