This week begins the Student Athlete Thank-A-Thon at Georgia State. Georgia State student-athletes will be calling all PAC supporters each night from 6-8 p.m.

Just wondering if this is a common thing across the Sun Belt? I always get a little re-energized about donating when these calls happen.

I've gotten a call every year to thank me for being a donator to the GSUAF. One year it was JJ Wilcox, which was fun because he came from my hometown. That was the first football player I got a call from, I've received calls from several other sports representatives. It's always really cool when they do it.

We don't have a specific timeframe when they do it, at least not one that's announced.

I got a call from Ryan Aplin once thanking me for donating to the Red Wolf Foundation. That was an interesting experience.

Astate will do it from time to time.
