No. Letterwinners/former athletes are our "veterans" and deserve any perks they get.
I was one of the early Club members in the door. I am not really mad about anything. In fact, I emailed the AD to thank them for this opportunity (I knew they were going to get a bunch of complaints.)
Comparing letterwinners to "veterans" might be a stretch. Also, only letterwinners who pay to be in the letterwinners club got early access.
