Actually, I think it was the opportunity to still attend college and remain part of civilization.

It a simple process called corporate sponsorships. Happens all over the country. Companies pay you to put thier name on things.

Some examples:

Tostitos Fiesta Bowl
ESPNs College Game Day built by The Home Depot

At Tech we have sponsorships from lots of companies:

Sprint
Suddenlink
Community Trust Bank
Willis Knighton
Hill Oil Company

Sometimes you have to offer them something special to get their money. Putting thier name on the backdrops used at your press conference, putting thier name on signage in your stadium, or even running thier ads on your jumbotron.

It's a common practice. Most schools have multiple sponsors/advertisers :odie:

Yes, but MOST schools do not screen print their sponsor's name on a big tarp used to hide the fact that they have vast areas of empty seats in the stadium. Usually, they put it on signage that doesn't obstruct seating.

1. Very great in size, number, amount, or quantity.
2. Very great in area or extent; immense.
3. Very great in degree or intensity. See Synonyms at enormous.

Since in years past they only covered sections II and and KK, it hardly counts as vast.

We all know that in the great arms race that is college athletics, you are just jealous of our tarps. :drunk2:

You are absolutely correct. That stadium would not qualify as vast by anyone's definition......

That is a Div. 1A stadium? The standards sure have dropped.

BTW Congrats on the transfer!

I hope he tears up the Belt for ya! Love it when kids leave the big schools and become successful instead of riding the bench for 3 years.

i updated the venue map of tech's field to adjust for where the tarps cover. i left the box seats for all the big donors that they don't have.

What would we do without tarps and trailers to make fun of during the off season?
