Lets say we got an OCS (not an OCS-plea thread I promise)

Would you favor naming the stadium after Leavitt (as of his body of work to this point)

Not to start an OCS debate but I just want to see how high or low some of us hold CJL in our minds, and if we believe that he has done enough as to receive an honor.

The naming rights to the stadium would almost certainly be sold. The only thing you could name would be the field.

he has built the program from scratch but he needs to accomplish way more to have a field named after him. 

lets start with beating Rutgers or Cincy one year.

I think it's too early to tell.

If we don't get a stadium for another 40-50 years, there may be someone better to name it after. At this point, if we were building a stadium tomorrow, I don't think it gets names anything. Then, if CJL retires in 3 years and is still in good standing, yes, I think it would be named after him.

I know there are a lot of haters out there, but you can't possibly deny that he has done so much for our program. The man bleeds green and gold. When the time comes, he will be honored in the proper way.

For the record, I am totally against naming something after someone when they are still there. Should be done after retirement.

Why is Selmon's name being thrown around? I'm younger, but did he ever play/coach at USF? Or is he just some big name guy who donates alot? He already has a toll-heavy raised expressway named after him...let's leave it to some corporate sponsors.

I'd be down for JL field @ so and so Stadium. Like Jim Leavitt Field at SunTrust Stadium.

Then we can give it a Bulls themed nickname, like how UF has 'The Swamp'. It could be The Slaughterhouse, or The Pen.

Welcome to Thunderdome, *****!
