According to the article, Learfield Sports owns BSU's marketing rights. I didn't realize that any universities did this.

When did BSU's stadium get named Albertson's Stadium?

Apparently they got into a bidding war with "Dollar General".

I wish it was 16 million. And his letter was about stipends for athletes.

You're right - he's fine with coaches, AD's, and University Presidents getting

He's a pragmatist and understands that stipends will lead to a bigger split

Here's an article from June that discusses the naming rights.

It's supposed to be a good deal for us, but I think it mostly benefits Learfield

Alabama has a huge deal with Learfield Sports. BSU has a $44 million dollar deal
