Awful idea. If they sell the Gampel naming rights that would be a slap in the face to donors.
UConn Husky Games Court at Gampel Pavilion?

To clarify, I have no idea if the school is actually considering this. It was just twitter chatter. Is there an expiration date on Harry A’s name?

I've always thought we should name the court after Calhoun.

If you want to throw Geno on the other side I have no problem with that either.

Hall of Fame Court. Put Calhoun's name on one sideline and Geno's on the other in large type. Add Ray and Lobo in smaller type and every other HOF alum as the make the Naismith HOF.

Love it. Although Ray and Lobo have the hall of fame banners, which is enough by me.

Sell the name of the court and have it be at “Gampel Pavillion”. We need the cash.

How would they be able to fundraise buildings in the future? Who would want to fork over big money just to see it get sold to the highest bidder 30 years down the road.

In the big picture it wouldn’t be worth it for a small amount of cash.

What are you talking about? The building name stays the same. The court hasn’t been named.

Many schools name it after a coach. Calhoun Court at Gampel Pavillion would be fine, but the Geno fans would freak out.

My bad. I completely read your post wrong. Thought you said sell the arena name rights and call it Gampel court.
