FSU football: Noles showing bigger commitment to playing big boy football?
By Kelvin Hunt
Final Thoughts
These additions are a good sign, and it’s a solid start for Michael Alford in his first month on the job as Athletic Director.
This aspect is one of the many reasons it’s important to become a Seminole Booster. These other programs have alumni contributing at a higher percentage than the Noles, whereas FSU only has about three percent of its total alumni base as acting boosters.
Michael Alford increased those booster numbers in his first year on the job and plans to work hand-in-hand with whoever assumes his old position.
Those monies go towards scholarships, facilities, nutrition, rehabilitation technology, equipment and other things necessary to compete at a high level.
There are several projects already underway, like the locker room renovations and new additions to other sports like baseball:
If you have not become a Seminole Booster, I’d encourage you to do so here. Anyone can donate a single amount or contribute as little as $25 per year to participate.
If 10,000 of over 300,000 FSU alumni contribute only $25, that’s an extra $250,000. That would be 38 percent of the allocations for strength and conditioning. Boosters can contribute to specific programs other than football as well.
I wrote about the positives of hiring Michael Alford as Athletic Director, and I trust he’ll make good use of the funds. That will help FSU get back to playing big boy football.
