Joe Aillet (pronounced eye-a) Stadium was named after former football coach Joe Aillet, who complied a 151-86-8 record and nine conference championships from 1940-66. He is a member of the Louisiana Tech Athletic Hall of Fame and the National Football Foundation College Football Hall of Fame. In 1985, a Sky Box was added over the press box. Four years later the stadium itself was expended to the present capacity in order to join Division I-A. The first touchdown pass in the stadium was completed between Terry Bradshaw and Buster Herren as the Bulldogs went on to win the inaugural game against East Carolina.
