Boise state has little competition for $$. We have oro teams, big 10 eams and ND in our back yard

Which is why I think we would get around 20% less of what Boise St is getting. I think $300k-$350 per year would be much more of a safer price range for the first 9 years due to our low season ticket numbers and less prime TV appearances. I think we can do better working on if a few years but right now the time is short with getting the East side premium box and seating renovation going asap!

We're all just assuming this is to get our foot in the door for the AAC, right? My personal vote goes to Nestle, Caterpillar, or Castle Bank (in that order of preference and my believed probability)

Don't forget it's not just Huskie Stadium up for bid, it's the convo, it's the new olympic sports center, etc. All these could have legitimate naming rights.

It wouldn't be named Castle Bank Stadium anyways. It would be First National Bank of Omaha. I doubt somebody would throw that much money at a sponorship and not get the most bang for their buck.

I just don't see a company putting up naming rights money for the Olympic sports center. A donation towards it, ok but not naming rights money. Its not like events would be held in the OSC so there is really no advertising worth outside of DeKalb and maybe Sycamore.

The Soccer field would have a better chance of getting some sponsorships, than the OSC, once the West side facilities are built. Same goes for the new baseball field once it is funded and built.
