I have gotten voice mails from various players over the years, basically saying "hey you gave to the Crusader Athletic Fund in the past, how about this year?"
Over the weekend, I got a handwritten postcard in the mail from a player thanking me for donating. I don't recall getting that before. It was an actual postcard with a game photo of the player who wrote the note as opposed to the traditional mass mailing card with just an address on the back.
I'm not sure if this has something to do with a new AD, and it's obviously preaching to the choir - but it is new

The Crusader Athletic Fund is a hugely positive development. I hope that everyone here takes the opportunity to donate. It is one of the only ways we can help to create the change we want to see!

According to our new AD, institutional support has been flat. Hence, the CAF is critical to our coaches and teams. I have received hand written notes over the years from various coaches, always in purple ink.

Kind of funny given another thread I saw this morning, but the player who wrote the thank you card I got was Caleb. Although I'm sure the text was copied from something written by a staffer, it mentioned he looked forward to seeing me on the hill or on the road

Oh, he had a firm grip: to the point of asphyxiation.

My guess is JEB put out feelers to some NESCAC folks, got a "thanks but no new members", then went looking for others in D1 that shared his vision.
