What if you blink and you miss one?I like your basic concept here.
In your challenge, must you see that all players be 100% successful in these efforts before you donate the $100? Also, if the AD accepted your challenge, would that be an NCAA rules violation? Just asking.
However, what about a challenge based upon objective criteria that anyone could verify? Some of us who do not live in Detroit and watch on TV are dependent upon the camera angle being shown to see the action. But a different type of challenge might get a lot of participants.
For example, Titan Reggie will be honored at this Saturday's game and the spirit award(s) presented in his honor. I would join a "Make the Turnovers Hurt" challenge for the WMU game. We could each agree to donate in his Reggie's honor $10 for each point the Titans score off turnovers. In future games, the challenge could be $10 each time the Titans hold the opponent to one shot or less in a possession. Or $10 per assist. I would join such a challenge. What do you think?

PTC, please shut up! Just stop your lame ideas and questions on how to donate $100 to the program. JDetroit puts a great offer out there, and you try to modify it. Think before you write. Well done JDetroit!
I have an idea, I’ll donate $100 if PTC stops his insanity! Wait, that’s not possible, PTC can’t help himself. I’ll go with JDetroit’s program!

In the 7 years that I have been making donations to the athletic department I received every receipt, whether under Vowels or Geither! Maybe you should talk to your post office or make sure your address is updated with the Athletic Department. Although you are generally right the AD never personally delivered the receipt, but I have received multiple thank you letters with the receipt in the mail!

Same here. I always get a receipt and letter in the mail.
