Coryell Legacy Society

Named after legendary Head Coach, Don Coryell, the Coryell Legacy Society recognizes all donors who have created an endowment, contributed $25,000 or more to an existing endowment, or have remembered SDSU Athletics in their estate plans.


Planned Giving and Endowments

Planned Gifts and Endowments help to ensure the future success and growth of SDSU Athletics.

Members of the Coryell Legacy Society are invited to an exclusive event each year to connect and engage with the student-athletes they support.
