How many schools have sold the naming rights I wonder


quote:

At least 58 college football teams have sold naming rights for their stadiums. This trend has been increasing, with notable deals occurring in recent years.

Recent Trends in Naming Rights

The increase in naming rights deals indicates a shift in how college athletic departments are seeking revenue.

These agreements often involve significant financial commitments from sponsors, which can provide essential funding for athletic programs.

Notable Examples

Indiana University: Recently secured a 20-year, $50 million naming rights deal for Memorial Stadium, renaming it Merchants Bank Field at Memorial Stadium.

University of Arkansas: Announced a $70 million deal over 13 years for Razorback Stadium, marking it as the largest naming rights deal in college football.




ETA: by my Arkansas math, that makes our agreement worth almost double Indiana's on an annual basis. Not too shabby IMO.

Also, just for shites and giggles, this is the only other SEC school with such an agreement so far...

Kentucky’s deal with Kroger (announced in 2017) renamed Commonwealth Stadium to Kroger Field under a 12-year naming-rights agreement starting immediately, worth about $1.85 million per year (payments go through Kentucky’s multimedia rights partner, JMI Sports).

Well, the vagina was designed at the dawn of humans, so I'd say yes. Also, it is probably the greatest creation ever...yuge fan.

"Largest deal of its kind in college football". What am I missing? :dunno:

Hate HY all you want, I do, but this is a good deal. Will some other schools come out, in the near future, with a bigger stadium naming rights deal? Maybe, hell probably. Doesn't change the fact that, for once, we were ahead of the curve on something because these type deals are going to become commonplace in the age of legal pay-for-play. Give the credit to whoever you want, HY, Learfield, the pope but at the end of the day this is a good deal.
Three arrested for assault - KYTX CBS19

Fuller was arrested on June 23 and booked into the Gregg County Jail on a $20,000 bond. She was released the next day, according to jail records. 

On Thursday, Brown and Mumphrey voluntarily surrendered to law enforcement, police said. Brown and Mumphrey were booked into the Gregg County Jail and charged with assault causing bodily injury Thursday with a $20,000 bond each. Both of them were released from jail the same day.

Longview Police Department spokesperson LaDarian Brown confirmed Fuller's arrest is connected to a reported assault that occurred Sunday at Whiskey J's, located at 300 TX-63 Spur in Longview, prior to the surrenders and arrests of Brown and Mumphrey.

“I think that there was a little bit of like liberal wishcasting that this would maybe be a disaster to sort of stick it to Trump,” said Rob Flaherty, the digital Democratic strategist and soccer fan who attended the U.S. group-stage match with Australia. “It hasn’t yet been.”



I really hope they have have great security at and around these events and are proactively watching for threats. I could see some loon leftists planning some terrorist act just to put a damper on the overall vibe of the Cup and, in their warped minds, Trump by proxy.
Group B is dumber than shite nut I disagree with your assessment that group A was of average intelligence. I think they were geniuses. :lol:

A Georgia man is believed to have died from a heart attack while disposing of a murder victim in Alabama woods.

The bodies of Jessica Folds, 47, and Daniel Robbins, 44, were discovered June 10 in Chambers County.

District Attorney Mike Segrest on Thursday said an autopsy showed Folds died of strangulation and Robbins of a heart attack.

Folds lived in Lanett and Robbins lived in Macon, Ga.

The discovery was made about 12:20 p.m. that Wednesday in the 1000 block of County Road 86.

Chambers County sheriff’s deputies were dispatched to the dirt road when a passerby spotted the pickup truck in the road.

When deputies arrived, they found Folds and Robbins in a nearby wooded area.

Their bodies were taken to the Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences for an autopsy.

“Based on the investigation by ALEA and the Chambers County Sheriff’s Office, and the autopsy done by the Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences, the female victim was strangled, and it appears the male was attempting to dispose of the body in a remote location.”

“He died of a heart attack while doing it,” Segrest said.

“Their bodies were right there together.”

The district attorney said the truck was still running and the driver’s side door was open. The tailgate was down, and there were drag marks in the dirt from the tailgate up into the woods where the bodies were found.

Segrest said there was no evidence to show where the strangulation took place but said he believed it was the result of a domestic incident.

Based on the condition of the bodies and the fact that the truck was still running, Segrest surmised the incident unfolded the night before.

Folds was the mother of three adult sons.

“Jessica lived and worked many places in the Auburn-Opelika area,” according to her obituary.

“Jessica touched the lives of many with her heart of gold, deep love for everyone, and a smile that brightened the world.”

“Daniel was a country boy who loved the outdoors, especially hunting and fishing and had a deep passion for racing,” according to his obituary.

“He specialized in welding, but loved working in farming and on vehicles.”

honest question, does the Reynolds family have a say in any of this or are they compensated in any way? Seems kinda shitty that you'd have a dude's name on the stadium and have a generation of people know it by that name and then jsut scrape him off for the highest bidder.


The Reynolds foundation made a $20 million donation and part of that included a naming rights agreement which expired in 2024.

Also, now that the numbers are out on the new agreement, anyone complaining about it is just looking for something to bitch about. It's the new way in college sports and it's a good deal. And I say that as someone who is not a fan of Hunter.
I'm no HY fan but interested to see how people are gonna shite on this if true.

What is there to whine about. Looks about right to me with us not having a NC which I would assume is weighted the heaviest. :dunno:

I like how the pastor used ol' boys hair to turn the other cheek so he could hit it too. :lol:

And dude flailing around, kicking his legs like a little bitch. :rotflmao:
I don't trust election results out of many areas such as New York, the Bay area, etc. Dems have had such a hold on these areas for so long, they could easily "steal" elections and no one ever give it a second thought.

That said, there's also too many people in those areas that are willing to give their vote and freedom for the promise of free stuff.
Meanwhile, in Texas, it's legal to concealed carry sans permit. :nana:

Yeah , I lived in Rapides for a while and worked at the Cottonport prison for five years back in my younger days.
Might have some wrasslin' royalty on the team next season. His name is spelled different but it is of the same lineage of the Maivia surname which belonged to "The High Chief" Peter Miavia who is also Dewayne Johnson's grandfather. Also, "Prince" Neff Miava was a pretty big wrestler in his day. Pretty cool if this kid is related, which is a good likelihood.

quote:

While "Maiava" and "Maivia" are different spellings, they refer to the same Samoan family lineage. Both surnames have been carried by influential figures in the world of professional wrestling, contributing to the cultural heritage of Samoa.
