TCU AD Jeremiah Donati in his first year on the job has "restructured the athletic department to create an executive committee, he’s built up the social media department" and he is also in the "process of improving the game-day experience," according to Drew Davison of the Ft. Worth STAR-TELEGRAM. Year 2 of Donati's tenure already has "built-in excitement" with the upcoming completion of the $100M expansion project at Amon G. Carter Stadium. All 22 suites "have been sold," along with all loge boxes and 70% of the club seats. The only issue is that the "uncharacteristically heavy amount of rain the area got in September and October has delayed the project by a couple of weeks." Donati said, "We’ve been able to make up a bunch of days in November and December, but technically we are still a few weeks behind." He added, "Our big thing is, it may not be 100 percent complete for the first game (Aug. 31 against Arkansas-Pine Bluff), but can it be functional so that the club seat holders and suite holders can occupy it? That’s really our biggest goal right now." Donati said the two things he really wants to do this year is "spend a lot of time measuring our student athlete experience and measuring our fan experience, and improving both." Donati: "I like what our game day experience looks like, but I think every four years or so you’ve really got to freshen it up" (Ft. Worth STAR-TELEGRAM, 12/19).
