It seems everything is stable with the site and no major issues have been reported. We do have SSL security in place even though some browsers like certain versions of IE don't reflect it at this point. If you all get a sudden rush of emails from Nigerian diplomats or Kablasikstanian lottery officials IM your complaints to Deez.

So get out there and promote the sh!t out of this thing and tell people to cough up some pledges!

We'll keep an eye on things but if you notice or hear of any problems email us at "info@jmu2fbs.com" ASAP.

Awesome! I sent it to the Chicago Alumni Chapter for distribution. Might be a good idea to send to all chapter leaders, if there is a published list somewhere?

well i don't see why that's necessary

Shared and Distributing, site looks great

Just posted it on Facebook to my JMU friends. If we all do this....maybe this will go viral.

Just curious, have you guys thought of producing a press release? Lots of templates online available. Throw one together and blast it off to as many media outlets as possible. Someone is bound to pick up this great grassroots oriented story.

I am would think Mr. DeGuzman over at WHSV would love to run it. I just tweeted him.

Looks great!! I'm passing it around too. Just one question. I know we got up to about $500 k in pledges on this board, but see the site is showing $205k in pledges. Are the pledges people made on the pledge counter thread being counted there or should I re-pledge on the site?

Thanks for the work you guys put into this.

Repledge. There's no way to transfer over to the new site.

Will do! Thanks!

I sent a message to Mike Barber about it too.

I suspect we will see a spike in website traffic after the home opener.

Be the Change.

Great looking site...just joined and pledged...I will wearing a Just Move Up shirt at JMU games.

I just saw President Alger on campus while wearing my shirt stopped and talked to him. Asked him what our goals were and got the same line of when the right opportunity presents itself. I've seen one other wearing a jmu2fbs shirt today as well.

Hahaha. The guy doesn't get it. You present yourself. You don't sit around and play with your balls and wait for an opportunity. Get this guy the hell out of here. He's the Dan Snyder of collegiate athletics.

Good for you, CISDuke. Too bad Alger is just as bad as most politicians. No straight answers or action. Just a lot of hot air.

Either way, he's going to go to bed having seen those shirts. It has to be embarrassing. Hard to believe we have to shame our administration into doing what almost everyone wants but that's what it has come to. Keep pledging on the site!

You asked "what are our athletic goals?"
and Alger said..."when the right opportunity presents itself"

That is not answering the question.

This admin refuses to simply say "we want 1A"...a slippery bunch

Bourne and iron curtain will have to think extra hard to excuse the Duke Club i.e. Bourne for not responding to a social movement attempting to raise cash to donate to the Duke Club.

The specific question were the long term goals specifically to advance the JMU brand and if that included 1-A FBS football. It was a long winded response but the basis was when the RIGHT opportunity presents itself.
