Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 3080282, member: 716"] Exactly. Great points that I'm sure both parties are thinking of. And in my opinion this shows the weakness of SU's position and why they're resorting to this PR/name removal stuff rather than just settling with Carrier and putting naming rights on the market: There's no market. Bookmark this and bump it when some corporation steps in with $10+ million over ten years and proves me wrong. Because I don't believe there's anyone out there who will make it worth SU's while in cash consideration; this is why they want Carrier to provide equipment and services. In a world where Nationals Park, surrounded by Fortune 500 companies in a major metropolitan area, can't get a naming sponsor over 11 years of its life, Syracuse University faces an uphill battle getting someone to pony up decent cash a) in an area with a moribund economy b) for a building with a 40-year name associated with it.
