Peyton makes $3 million leadership commitment to UT

[kamoshika]

Vol for Life and five-time National Football League Most Valuable Player Peyton Manning and his wife, Ashley, announced Friday a $3 million leadership commitment to the University of Tennessee. This gift commitment will benefit both the Tennessee football program and the Peyton Manning Scholarship Endowment.

This commitment will also honor two individuals, Gus Manning and Carmen Tegano, who are very special to Peyton Manning. Gate 16 at Neyland Stadium will be named the Gus Manning Gate, honoring the Tennessee legend who has served the University and its athletic program for 64 years.

As if we couldn't like Peyton any more. Incredible generosity and dedication. The epitome of VFL.

Can VN pool their money together to rename Gate 21 the "Rod Wilks Gate"?

What a way for our football team's actions today to honor this day and commitment by Peyton...

I think the Golden Gate on the east side of the Jerusalem wall is already named that iirc.
