[QUOTE="BCJacket, post: 513050, member: 2332"] I submitted a broad idea: that we need to be aggressive, to the point of "looking desperate", in generating revenue. One big [controversial] question I have is how would you feel about selling naming rights? Wanted to post that here and see what the feedback was. I hate the idea of being this rapacious, but can we afford to be so proud? Our budget is less than half Clemson and U[sic]GA's... My suggestion would be something like: [SIZE=2]Bobby Dodd Stadium at: Historic Grant Field at:[/SIZE] [U][SIZE=5]'The Coca Cola Flats'[/SIZE] [/U] Make 'the flats' officially refer to the stadium grounds including the new grove at Peters Park. (Pemberton Park anyone?) Which would keep the history intact, incorporate (and solidify) a tradition, and [B]raise revenue[/B]. Our official media, etc, would be instructed to refer to the location by the Coca Cola moniker in public facing announcements. After you're done gagging: If that could afford us 2-3 more recruiting staff-> which lets say gets us 5 spots higher in recruiting-> if that wins us 1-2 more games a year... could you swallow it?
