"Paul Tudor Jones came forward with his customary generosity and business-like approach," Casteen said. "Paul has said more than once, 'Let's get things moving.' His gift pushes us much closer to doing exactly that, and will bring completion of the project nearer than we had earlier imagined. "For many years he has helped to move the University forward in academics, and now he is doing the same for athletics. All of us at the University of Virginia are grateful to Paul - for both his generosity and his unfailingly energetic support."

Jones went sprawling backward, but fortunately his head didn't strike the floor or the bleacher seats. His two stat partners, Mason Logan and Mike "Kato" Koehler, escaped the danger.
