2019-Whenever Misc. Grab Bag Thread

Technically, State already has five names assigned to property at the football stadium. The Murphy family has the football center at the south end of the stadium that houses the football offices, training and treatment centers and locker rooms. The TowneBank Center is the tower that houses the press box, coaches box and luxury suites ... some of which comprise the Dail Club Level. That's two more sponsored names. Then the stadium itself, which was originally Carter Stadium until they attached the Finley name when expansion did away with the old Finley Field House which was the old stand alone football locker room building with a small hospitality area. So, that's the Carter, Dail, Murphy and Finley families and TowneBank ... none of whom are likely to be stepping up for an over-arching naming grant on top of whatever they've already pledged and or paid in the past ... although I guess TowneBank might be a player. I'd guess we'll end up with Corporate Name Carter Finley Stadium ... unless they kick it down to Carter Finley Field at Corporate Name Stadium, which is clunky and kind of dumb and thus 100% likely.
Finley was added to Carter in 1979, the year before I started school.
