Topic: FIU Stadium Naming Rights

FIU stadium rights goes for $1.2 million.

Is FIU setting the worth of other G5 stadium naming rights?

$1.2 seems a bit low.

Makes sense that the only school with International in its name got Mr. Worldwide. The post I saw earlier today said it's $1.2M per year over 5 years so $6M total. He also gets to use the stadium for concerts 10 times per year.

Maybe someday the Herd will play in Tyler Childers Stadium.

Does anyone remember how long Joan C Edwards Stadium and Edwards Field are "righted" for?  Is it a lifetime thing (think maybe the field was).

This is the greatest thing in College Football currently. FIU has more traction and interest on social media right now than any other G5 school by far.

Perhaps that will translate into more than 1000 fans at their games.

Only if Pitbull is playing afterwards.
