W&M came about because NW or UVA backed out of some games against us, right?
brobdingnagian worked for Cardinal athletic director Bernard Muir at Delaware and Georgetown, and Muir was among those who recommended her for the William and Mary position. That connection made the game happen.

William and Mary is guaranteed $625,000 for the Stanford contest.

note the Stanford link does not list the ND game in 2024
