The Geo Group who is the leader in private-run prisons bought the naming rights to FAU's stadium
Really....
10-1 odds this ends up on the smack board.
Welcome to Prison, Boyz.

So does this take an Oz or Prison Break turn?

We've decided on the nickname OWLcatraz.

I don't get the big deal about what they do. It's local billion dollar company, traded on the NYSE, and is run by an FAU Alum.
Would seem to fit "the cage" at FIU better, but oh well. The race to come up with a new nickname for FAU's stadium begins, too bad the big house is already taken. How about "the Slammer" or "the clink"?

That game is over. I don't think there is topping OWLcatraz.

Were I an Owl fan, I'd likely agree, it's admittedly pretty good, but I'm not sure I see it catching on with rivals.
Yup, either OWLcatraz or Bocatraz were the leaders.

I like OWLcatraz as it rhymes more with the actual Alcatraz

Why not? The Big House and Death Valley caught on. This is similar.

Neither of those are a play on words, both have been long established. I'm just saying I wouldn't be surprised if rivals come up with a different nickname, especially given the subject matter they've been given to work with. Better believe it will be the subject of many jokes the next time you have a player run afoul of the law.

CONGRATS to FAU . . OWLcatraz is awesome . . 04-cheers
The OWLcatraz comment made me think of something else. Not serious, but VERY insensitive suggestion listed below.
Highlight it, only if you want to see it...

Else... just keep going

Well, who really cares? If OWLcatraz sticks it'll be because FAU fans embrace it. Opposing teams will make fun of the name regardless of what it is or the subject matter. Besides, the $6 million is the most important thing here.

Insensitive any way you slice it, but considering the demographics of South Florida...
So will the mascot become the Birdman of Owlcatraz?

With what opponents have been doing to FAU on the football field recently it seems appropriate to have a prison name.

Yup. LOL that would not go over well in anyway, shape or form.
