Isn’t it also possible that SU could just stop calling it the “Carrier Dome” instead just calling it The Dome in all their media? Effectively Carrier gets no publicity or benefit out of it. The university effectively loses nothing. Maybe the hope would be they relinquish naming since they realize they won’t get anything anymore except bad publicity? I mean, it’s at least plausible, right? Not saying likely, but if the university isn’t getting anything out of it and the company (who got an absolute steal) isn’t willing to come back and at least try to be a decent partner, then why allow them to benefit? (Maybe I’m just a jerk, who knows. But I’d be the first one to say yeah I worked you over, I probably should do something at least to help you out a little to make up for it now, 40 years later)

All relationships have ups and downs. See it however you want. If I recall, the name is still on the building and there is no requirement for the use "Carrier Dome" elsewhere. If Carrier and SU want to part ways, so be it.

Why did Syracuse pull Carrier’s name now? John Wildhack says ‘no rhyme or reason’
Syracuse athletic director John Wildhack said there was 'no rhyme or reason' for why Carrier was suddenly pulled from school literature this year.

I liked Daryl Gross because he brought (too much moxie, sales and hustle to a conservative approach that needed new life.
I love Wildhack because he has gravitas without needing public validation and operates in a more season way.
Stadium? Freaking Baller...

Syracuse knew what it was doing. Absolutely no reason on earth other than to stir the pot by calling it "the Stadium" lol

But there's no "Carrier" to be seen.
Of course, the locals have called it "The Dome" for decades.

How about the Amazon Stadium at Syracuse U or Amazon Athletic Complex at SU? I mean now that we are getting a major distribution hub, why not?
I mean the beauty of Amazon(or other) Athletic Complex would bypass Carrier altogether still could be technically the Carrier Dome, but just never mentioned of in any way except for a small(tiny) plaque on the building.

Oh, so now Cuse is not only not calling it “Carrer”, they’re not even calling it “Dome” anymore?

If that ever happens, it will quickly be nicknamed "The Rainforest"

Oh, I can think of million$ of rea$on$ why it may not be “the Dome” anymore.
If we don’t call it The Dome, then it stands to reason that it cannot be The Carrier Dome any longer.

Just don't call 800-DOMETIX
At least a few years ago is was a sexychat line. 800 vs 888 is the key thing to remember

It’s a different material. Same shape basically. I don’t see how it isn’t a Dome.
