Naming rights for CSU's new stadium - ideas?
- Thread starter sackman
- Start date
CSU staff is garbage. Essentially two fired coaches from Fresneck, 1 or 2 from Wyoming. 2 co-DC's that have never been a DC before, and don't appear to have any relevant experience. A WR coach who has never coached before. The only coach that might be able to coach at CU is Napier, and he was fired at Clemson and could only manage a graduate job at Bama. Plus Scherer>>>>Napier imo
I thought you said he was worth $200MM. He is going to spend his entire worth on a new stadium?
Napier was "fired" because Dabo Swinney didn't get along with him. He set Clemson and ACC records while he was OC there though. Has Scherer done that? Doubt it.
Also Marty English was was a DC at Wyo for 2 or 3 years
what about your little problem called the Mountain West Conference ?
that's not going to change anytime soon ... Captain Jack can't buy himself into a new conference-
And they could have the reincarnations of Vince Lombardi, Tom Landy, Bud Wilkinson, and Knute Rockne on that staff, with zero talent they aren't going to win many games. And based on history they don't draw flies even if they do win. They had troubles getting close to 30,000 when Sonny had them ranked, I don't see them getting close to that with a terrible team losing to no-name conference foes.
Scherer was essentially offered the BRoncos OC job. Can't say that about Napier. Either way, Napier won't be at CSU for more than 1-2 years, and it appears McElwhine's coaching connections are extremely limited to say that least.
ICON (may they always be 100% right) assumed anywhere between 45 and 150 million of donations. So AT A MINIMUM, Mr. Graham is willing to spend 25% of his net worth (up to 75% if necessary) to get a stadium built for CSU?
That sounds totally reasonable.
When does Gasm get his show on Comedy Central. This gets more ridiculous every post.
You can't sell the seats you have for cheap, who's going to pay for premium seating in an empty stadium. And who's going to pay for sponsorships in an empty stadium. I keep hearing "sponsorships" thrown around like empty taco bell cups outside a row of dispensaries, give me the names of any legitimate sponsors who have already ponied up with cash, not just maybe but who are in with real money.
Actually yes. He is going to donate more than $50 million.
Dude - he isn't going to pay 68% of his worth for the stadium. Maybe $10MM - which would still be pretty awesome.
So, $135MM in donations. $30MM in naming rights (or is there more that ICON claims you will get?). $35MM in premium seating? Can you run through what that entails again?
Does anyone know what CU gets from premium seating? We have the luxury boxes which are about 10 years old. Those run $500k a pop right? How many do we have? How much does club seating cost?
More hopes and dreams, A lot of people COULD pay for it.
obviously ICON figured out that CSU football tickets are a Veblen good and they just need to raise the price to increase the demand.
RamClub boosters who answered the ADs e-mail survey saying they would?
As I have said multiple times North Texas got $20mil in naming rights alone for their garbage $78mil stadium. CSU is easily going to get $20-40mil for naming rights and other sponsorships in a mint $246mil stadium
you are a special kind of moron.
Jealous I'm right? I'm just pointing out facts. If thats all you have to say then I'll take that as a win
all we need is the word butthurt to come out of gasm's mouth and the moron will have come full circle.
Jesus how many times do I have to say it? ICON posted projections off surveys sent to boosters at other stadiums for this and showed a 95-100% accuracy rate from the answered surveys to actual after it was built.
So yeah, I think we're good in that regard
You have a weird understanding on how rich people work. These are not lotto winners blowing their millions.
I will buy you a ****ing bottle of Stranahan's if he donates more than 50$ million :rofl:
you just can't seem to grasp basic logic. You have received zero dollars but many promises. What you need to do is settle the **** down, go back to ramnation with your tail between your legs. Here is some advice.
1. stop pretending the money is in the bank. Yes you may get these funds but don't go bang the drum just yet. A lot of **** can happen in the future.
2. enough with the ICON numbers. They just don't make sense. You would have the largest growth rate in attendance that college football has seen in the past 50 years or so. And by a large margin, the worst part is you think that it all adds up.
3. don't break your neck sucking jack grahams ***.
You are quite casual with other people's money.
