Far from it, Mizzou takes the prize naming a venue with Walton money then having egg on face as it came out the Walton kid was cheating in school.

I would laugh but our new Basketball Arena is gonna 100% be named after a Booster

Much better than selling it off to some cheesy 3rd rate company and calling it the Discount Tire Arena or something.

Did Bruce approve of this?
quote:
Bill knew how much his father loved Auburn and he's dedicated much of his life to honoring his father," Auburn men's basketball coach Bruce Pearl said. "That's how I look at this gift. I will always work hard to try to continue to bring championships to Neville Arena. "This is a commitment to all four of the programs that call Neville Arena home. The fact that our guys will truly have a place they can call home 24 hours a day, seven days a week with the way they train, is very significant and will contribute to our ability to sustain success."

Not every day you see an entire legacy of coaches cucked by a single big money booster.

Hey, Neville. Sorry that your name is corny as hell.
I wouldn't give a crap what my name was if I was able to write a check for the largest donation in school athletics history.

You are a laughing stock that has no clue how most arenas got their names.

We did worse, for $10 million donation..
The Pavilion at Ole Miss became
The Sandy and John Black Pavilion at Ole Miss.
We even fit 'SANDY AND JOHN BLACK PAVILION' on both baselines

I am so so confused…. I thought the Neville family was a Louisiana institution.

The Ville, sounds ok.
The $20m donation will be used to pay for the new basketball practice facility, win/win.
