Trips vs. draws multiway

Typical 1/3 table with typical differences in stack sizes, player profiles, etc. Nothing unusual.
Main V (BB) is an older lady -- typical tight player who occasionally will use that image to try to steal a pot. Tends to look at opponents' checks as weak, at small bets as something small, and big bets as strong; basically looks at betting in a straight-up way.
My question is primarily about the river call, though thoughts anywhere along the line are welcome.
PRE-FLOP
Hero (UTG, covers all villians): Raise to 15 with
MP2 ($900): Calls
LJ ($67): Calls
HJ ($800): Calls
BUT ($101): Calls
BB ($191): Calls
FLOP ($90):
Checks around
TURN ($90):
Checks to LJ: Bets $20 ($32 behind)
HJ: Calls ($765 behind)
BUT: Calls ($66 behind)
BB: Raise to $75 ($101 behind)
HERO (UTG): Calls*
MP2: Folds
LJ: Calls all-in $32
HJ: Folds
BUT: Calls all-in $66
*I'll give my thoughts later if there is consideration that this is a mistake.
RIVER:
Main pot: $318
Side pot 1: $102
Side pot 2: $18
BB: Bets/shoves $101
HERO: ??
(All other remaining players are already all-in.)

Maybe he's pulling this move with AJ with the Ac. Maybe T8 exactly. Otherwise, he has so many clubs, JT and T9 made boats, KQ, Q8 are all in his range. I'm not sure we're even good the 18% of the time we would need to break even.
It's a weird spot, but I think I find a fold.
On the turn as played I agree with @ben gunn this is probably a fold having one of the worse Tx hands given the texture.
With the exception of HJ, everyone's stack was small. I didn't think that I'd get a ton fold with a standard cbet. I also figured that, if my hand improved, then I could get action later. I was also concerned about drawing dead already.
As for the turn, maybe I should have given more consideration to potentially drawing dead. I did figure that a player with a huge piece of the pot would likely try to get action going earlier. But, I guess I forgot my own thinking about being short-stacked! I called the turn figuring that I was ahead of a good number of hands and likely had outs if I were behind. With the exception of BB (since HJ folded), not much of my stack could be threatened.
Errant thinking before I even arrived at the river?
I can only check/fold this.
Calling HJ's bet is already not great (but somehow if everybody calls, you may have too good of a price to fold...). But once BB raises, why do you even think about calling ?
