[QUOTE="gtie73, post: 397343, member: 154"] I normally just read and don't post but this chain bothers me. I am a GT grad and a long term Alex Thorpe donor. Everyone I know and interact with at the Alexander Thorpe fund and ticket office is aware of this "pilot". Football staff has requested adding 4 more staff (non field) to their present 4 positions who would aid and expand our recruiting base. Seems like every other AA group we compete with has this structure funded. As noted in the reply above there are longer term plans to increase revenue ( ACC t v network is one) as shared by Todd I this webcast. Short term ( paying off past contracts is one issue) GTAA is in a money bind. A GTAA donor in N Y is the person who will contribute at 50% match up to $200 K ( $400K total FROM GTAA DONORS. ) . There are milestones to meet ( such as the $200K by the Febr signing period this coming week. Though an alumn ( happy we have these people) started this exercise to see if the GT people making comments regarding our need to be more competitive ( in this case FB) would back it up with money, GT A A agreed EVERYONE who contributes to the GTAA recruiting fund is given credit toward their A A point total. We've always been able to allocate donations to a sport via the normal GTAA web site contribution page. My first contribution is listed in my summary GTAA giving sheet. I'm giving another contribution today. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
