Message: [QUOTE="Cusefan95, post: 4825312, member: 173"] Right now, JMA gets mentioned for both Syracuse football and basketball game telecasts. In your plan, it would only get that for basketball (and lax, but that audience is very small relative to the other two sports nationally). You are assuming the naming rights of the current stadium would maintain full value if football wasn't played there, AND the new football stadium rights would be as valuable as what JMA pays now - or at least the total package would offset additional maintenance and financing costs for a new stadium. I have no idea if any of the assumptions being made above are valid - I do know I wouldn't just assume them to be true. I also recall one of the issues with a new stadium for football at South Campus was the Dome couldn't be justified if football wasn't being played there, which indicates Syracuse was not comfortable with your assumptions.
