Todd Graham is a classy guy
Coach Todd Graham wasn't scheduled to meet with the media Wednesday, but as he came off the practice field he stopped, looked at azcentral sports' Doug Haller and said, "Doug, I'll take one question."
After thinking about it for a few seconds, Haller, with a smile on his face, asked Graham if he and his wife, Penni, had any disagreement about donating $500,000 in September to the fundraising effort for the renovation of Sun Devil Stadium.
"Not a lot," Graham said. "It was harder on me than it was on her. Obviously that was a big commitment for a poor guy like me (he was smiling as he said it). I've obviously given to things, but nothing like the magnitude of that."

I actually commend him for giving back. These coaches are overpaid.

Nice to see the 1% in America building a brighter future.

It would've been a better story if he said "no comment" and walked away.sarktastic said:http://www.azcentral.com/story/sports/college/asu/2014/11/12/asu-freshman-dt-emanuel-dayries-role-likely-expand/18934905/

Not a dry eye in attendance.
