Ndamukong Suh-The Generous Giant

He's helping improve his alma mater, which provided him the venue that lead to such a payday. Blasting someone for donating $2M to a university when that's just a fraction of their net worth is pretty dumb. Plus like Ruhskins said, that's a big write off. Also, if I had to guess, that money will be donated over a period of time, not in one lump sum.

I applaud his decision.

Yupp he is a smart kid. I dont care where you go, but Engineering is butt hard and requires a ton of time commitment. Being a top NCAA player and graduating out of engineering is a huge accomplishment. I had a roommate who played as a FB on our team. And yeah UVA is a terrible football program currently but the time commitment was insane. He basically had two-a-days, film study, other team bonding shit, etc. all day plus classes. Maybe 30 mins for himself in a day. Maybe.
