Will they perform freak on a leash?

Is this new money that can go toward Phase 2, or has this already been accounted for? I guess "Korn Field" is kind of memorable. I appreciate the donation and just hope the stadium is very nice when its all done (hopefully in the next couple years)

Love Korn Field!! lots of gimmicky potential there.

But yeah, after 70 years of life, it is and always will be Foreman Field.

It would be unique lol. What do you think the odds that any of the current students have heard that song are?

Odds are slim. But if they have, it was their parents who were listening to it and they probably think it's classic rock.

One crane is almost put together this morning. Ready to see some steel being put in place!!

The "blau" rhymes with "plow"

Thanks for clearing that up! I always heard his name said as Corn-Blaw, ryhmes with "law". Glad I never had to say his name in front of him.

Our local news station pronounced it as corn-blow

which ain't right

Calling it Korn Field is a recipe for failure. The know how this came about. As a black male, I find this offensive and I know the black kids which are the better athletes won't come play at ODU. I wouldn't come play at the "Korn Field" Just a thought...

Call it what you will, but the name of our new football facility will be Kornblau Field at S.B. Ballard Stadium, not “Korn Field”, etc. If any of us didn’t want the name of the stadium/field being changed, or wanted it to be named differently, they should have ponied-up the funds.



Thank you Mr. Kornblau for your generous gifts to ODU, and to ODU Football.

This thread is getting kind of.....Korny

Hopefully someone will pony up funds to keep the stadium filled when ODU football can't recruit talented players!

Based on the name of the field? You're lunching.

You're offended and dont think ODU will be able to recruit players because some people might call the field "Korn Field" after a guy with the last name Kornblau who donated 3 million to name the field?

Man, i'll be the first one on your side if things seem out of line but I think you might be grasping for this one.

Do I see a crane being constructed on the live cam today?

I wonder with this new name change if we will have success recruiting the kids of Nebraska
