[QUOTE="HurricaneJacket, post: 355410, member: 3006"] Play Moneyball. TS can focus on a few things from a football perspective that can carry over to other sports as well. 1. An IPTAY style program. A while back one of the Tech boards came up with FEM which meant "fifty (or five) every month" which would help fund the AA. Honestly this type of program could be used to fund both the AT Fund and the general fund of the school. 2. A school wide focus on gameday atmosphere. Something like the "white at night" idea where a game starting after 6pm is a whiteout in the stands and a game starting prior to 6pm is a gold out. This can be helped by providing a better selection of white and gold gameday gear.. TS is trying this with the Addidas deal. 3. Focus on bringing in sidewalk fans. Pair with the hill to improve outreach to the metro. To use the cliche, "build a wall" around the metro and aggressively market Tech as a whole. There should be GT's everywhere in the city and we should be seen as the face of the city. If we want to meet the President's goal as being the first place people turn to when facing a problem globally, lets make sure that we are also that place locally. All three of these can definitely help football, but apply the same things to the all other sports and we can begin to develop a campus wide culture of sports fandom and outreach to make Tech an even more unique animal.
