What is the Aillet Society?
Is this for NIL?
It is not NIL related. https://latechsports.com/sports/2022...t-society.aspx
The Aillet Society recognizes shareholders who provide their leadership by making charitable commitments to Louisiana Tech Athletics of $25,000 or more, payable over a five-year period. Gifts made to the Aillet Society are philanthropic in nature and are above and beyond annual LTAC donations. 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.
He has been having health issues (cancer) lately.

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 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.
Sharky, honest question……..
Have you been a fan for 40+ years? Have you gone to leadership personally with suggestions that were ignored or sneered at by people who are supposed to be smarter than any of us in this area? Have you been a multi sport sesson ticket holder for decades? That is a minimal glance at the resume of nearly every person who is complaining about our current state of affairs
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.
