But, they only need one…not both?

You got my vote.

It will be Schnellenberger field for sure. It will just have to wait until he retires.

GO OWLS!!!

I wish I could be so sure.  With all the talk about naming rights for the stadium, field, pressbox, lockers, urinals, I'm afraid anything they can hang a corporate sign on is fair game.  I hope they at least give us that one.

Also, they didn't have to wait for Bowden to retire.  Then again, Bowden might never retire.

Big Ticket Items

Stadium $20 Million

Innovation Village $5 Million

Field $5 Million

Clock Tower $3 Million

Press Box $3 Million

Scoreboard $3 Million

Family End Zone $3 Million

Stadium Boulevard $3 Million

Plaza $2 Million

Bronze Owl Sculpture $1 Million

Four Cornerstones $1 Million / each

So if what they say is true, one company could be buying Stadium, Innovation Village, and Field all in one fair swoop while the other gets 4 of the $3M rights.

I'm not surprised that people aren't falling over themselves to name a family endzone or a press box. It's not like that exposure is going to do much for your business. It's essentially philanthropy at that point.

Hooterville?

;D

 we could call the area surrounding the stadium hooterville

We could get a hooters in the innovation village...that would be a good draw from the outside of FAU, especially if it had FAU coeds... i dunno about calling it hooterville though.
