Reality of modern day college athletics is you're always going to have to build, renovate, improve, add on, etc. to keep up with the Joneses. There needs to be a "wow" factor every 4 year cycle or so to keep the attention of recruits and fans.
I'm surprised GT hasn't made a big deal about more campaign raises like other schools often do. It's been more lowkey with large donors...as if GT didn't want to seem too needy in terms of public perception. I think the whole capital raising of coaches salaries and to add staff might have "clicked" something and we realized if we asked for it, our fan base and donors will answer. I would say the "campaign" to raise capital for coaching salaries was a rousing success.
Good to see the admins getting more aggressive with this. Usually we see one of these "campaigns" once every 1-3 years. We just finished with the staff capital raising, and we're quickly following up with this. Now, as
@MGTfan alluded to, hopefully they find a way to make it less onerous for fans to contribute. The money will come.
