I just received a call from Coach Bibbs thanking me for the donation. I don't know how she got my work number??? She not only thanked me, she thanked me for all of you knuckleheads, by saying she appreciates all that we are trying to do for the Lady Aggies. Obviously, Coach Bibbs doesn't know me from Abe Lincoln, but she does know the importance of showing appreciation and that my friends is worth the $100 (that and the IRS deduction). I received a call from Coach Bibbs about our efforts....Thrilla she loves you! ;D That is one classy coach and winner.....I will continue to help coaches that have the "midas" touch and she does! We should call her "The wizard"of HBCU WBB!" Thanks thrilla and Coach Bibbs!

BTW: We are really starting to pick up steam this evening. Duke Meekins came through with another $150, Robert Melton stepped up with $50, and just a few minutes ago a diehard A&T fan named Charles Lownes just dropped $150 of his own. Don't let anyone ever tell you that Aggies don't support their university financially. That is a boldface lie. This campaign right here proves otherwise. Why don't you join our effort now and make a similar donation. Together, we are changing the culture of giving around here. www.active.com/donate/beatdowns_unlimited

Just a tremendous personality and human being. She called the house about 3:30 this afternoon and left us a wonderful personal message on our answering machine. Only wish we had been home to take her call in person.
They don't come any better than Coach Bibbs.

My oh my. Jonathan Harmon just stormed back and donated another $200, pushing his overall total to $300. Folks, right now we have raised $2,950 in just about 5 days. A&T fans are simply the best.

Coach Bibbs can give A&T coaches lessons on how to thank people who give their program financial support. She is the first A&T coach to thank me, personally, for giving to their program. The others haven't.

Generally all of the coaches send out thank you letters when they receive donations to their programs. This includes coach Lee.

We still need the younger folks on this site to step up for the cause. Let's get somebody from the 2007, 2008 or 2009 graduating classes to make a donation right now. Any amount would be greatly appreciated. www.active.com/donate/beatdowns_unlimited

That's what I'm talking about. All the usual suspects are showing up now. I knew the BDF would show and prove when it came time to make a difference. Let's keep this thing going: www.active.com/donate/beatdowns_unlimited

I just checked the mail and saw a contribution from a mystery donor named "McLaurin". Obviously they are someone who cares greatly for this university and the women's basketball program. Will you be the next fan to join this important campaign?: www.active.com/donate/beatdowns_unlimited

Last Thursday, members of the A&T fan forum launched a new online giving campaign to support the North Carolina A&T women’s basketball program. As of today we have successfully raised more than $3200. Heartfelt thanks go out to every single person who took the time to make a donation to this important effort. Hall of Fame coach Patricia Cage-Bibbs was so taken aback by our outpouring of support that she immediately contacted many of the donors personally to express her gratitude. However, there is still work left to do. We are planning to conclude the first phase of this campaign next week and we'll be formally presenting a check to the A&T athletics department. Our goal is to raise at least $4000 by that time. If you’ve already made a donation, please spread the word to other fans you know about this ongoing effort. Don’t prevent them from having the same chance that you had to make a difference and show their support for Coach Bibbs and the Lady Aggies. If you have not made a donation yet, this is a perfect time to get off the sidelines and take action! Your contribution of $25 or more will go a long way in ensuring that this championship program remains on top. Together, we can all help “maintain the dynasty”: www.active.com/donate/beatdowns_unlimited
