What is the Aillet Society?
Is this for NIL?
It is not NIL related. https://latechsports.com/sports/2022...t-society.aspxQuote:

Support from the Aillet Society will provide funding for facility construction and renovations, coaches' salary enhancements, and other specific projects of the Athletics Department designed to enhance the student-athlete and fan experience.
Rumor had it earlier that he was contributing towards an indoor practice facility.
That would be my guess. His property in Oklahoma has been up for sale for quite a while, so maybe it sold. Does anyone know if it did or not? The "Terry Bradshaw Indoor Athletic Facility" has a nice ring to it. He has done so much for Tech over the years. I was an "aquaintence" of Terry during my time at Tech. We lived in two of the same dorms and had mutual friends.Quote:

God bless Terry Bradshaw! He doesn’t have to give Tech one penny but he does! He has a genuine love for his alma mater! I can’t say I blame the other former players for holding tight with their donations! Our administration could screw up a one man rock fight!
The other former athletes should give. As with Terry and Karl "Ever Loyal Be". They can give and designate what their $$ goes for like the needed indoor practice facility. With the transfer portal, any loyality or relation to ones college goes out the window.Quote:

The saddest thing about Bradshaw and Tech is that Tech hasn’t done near enough to help make Bradshaw as proud as he should be about his school. Imagine what could’ve been for Tech with Bradshaw’s national TV platform for him throwing the school some praise if the football team had ever won a conference championship or been nationally ranked.
Another commercial for the CCC Club spewing forth from one of the outstanding charter members of the Club. Bone-afide-Dawg is negative to the bone. He pants while he waits for opportunities to prove it, and he has struck again.Quote:

specifically I am curious about the particulars of "having gone to leadership personally with suggestions...." Please, how were the meetings and the response to your honest suggestions. I personally would like to go with any of you guys. I am a 50+ dedicated "Ever Loyal Be" suppoter, all in fan. A number of us are just tired of the constant "CCC" banter. Again, I am retired and have the time to support constructive approaches to get our programs on track.Quote:

I am willing to be one of the thousand. I wish I had the $$ personally to designate for specific things our teams need ex. indoor practice complex. All I have is a willingness to do what I can. Just listening to echo chambers of negativity is not getting anything done.
Many iin the Tech athletics administration took a side trip to Harding a couple of years ago. (Yes, the Harding playing Saturday in the National D2 Championship game in McKinney).
Their $5.5 million facility is way better than many built by D1s . . . and fully funded by former football player (ask our AD who led the visit). The Harding head coach. THE HEAD COACH! hit the trail and raised money to fund the facility to honor his predecessor.
So . . . it can be done. We've just chased away all but a few notable Tech alums who can connect with people and hit the trail and have this kind of impact.
The real problem is we have failed at meaningful alumni engagement for decades upon decades. Simply expected people to come to games and give because they went to Tech. In a perfect world that would be awesome, but people have to feel wanted/like their dollars or time matter, and we haven't done that well at all.
The involvement of Killer Ed Jackson was FINALLY pinpointed and pushed these last couple of years.Quote:
