Message: [QUOTE="cmr27, post: 2149257, member: 215"] It's interesting that the exact criteria is "The 25 Most Noteworthy People in the History of Syracuse Athletics." Using that EXACT criteria, whomever came up with the idea for the Carrier Dome is automatically number two on the list behind The Great Jim Brown. That genius inspiration to build the Dome - whomever had it - single-handedly altered the fortunes of the football program, created a 40-year basketball recruiting advantage and transformed the fan experience for millions of SU fans. They also achieved something difficult architecturally. The Dome is iconic in the college sports landscape -- its own brand, instantly recognizable inside and out, to fans nationwide. We watch sports for the people on the field so The Great Jim Brown must be number one but the "most noteworthy" person is whomever came up with the Dome. [/QUOTE]
