Who’s logo would you want to see on the field at the Rent?

Something AUKUS or Buildsubmarines.com would look pretty hard. Would blend in nicely with Pratt and Whitney. All in MIC.

General Electric, paying well over market value.
Pratt & Whitney will not be happy if UConn brings in GE, their main competitor, and a coalition to hire engineering talent away from RTX to General Dynamics.

We’d be better off with Madison Reed or something.

some CT/Northeast companies to reach out to (some super unlikely, some more likely):

  • BIC
  • Terex
  • Diageo (now in NY)
  • Sikorsky/LM (yes competitor but longgggtime former sister company to PW which has lots of CT history together under UTC)
  • Subway (I could see this happening, it's the kind of company that would advertise in cfb)
  • webster bank
  • CSE Credit Union (no money but free advertising for ourselves, ultimately...I think? I assume CSE and uconn is ultimately 1 and the same)
  • UConn Health (no money but free advertising for ourselves, ultimately)
  • the casinos (personally not a fan of putting this on the field, but i know sports and betting go hand in hand, and they're already partnered with our basketball programs so i assume it's easier to just scale that deal than start fresh)
  • The insurance comapnies in HFD (boring and predictable but money is money)
  • Pepperidge farm
  • Priceline/Kayak/Booking.com
  • Dunkin (scale our existing relationship w them - if needed, also leverage yardgoats/ddpark relationship)

and on and on.

personally i don't like the idea of plastering logos on things, it starts looking like a money starved development league, like basketball in europe (logos everywhere on uniforms and floor, no clue even who the team names actually are) --- but i get it..we can't keep falling behind further and further.

Personally i hope advertising never comes to the uniforms. that is just awful... in European semi-pro football leagues (american football), they advertise on the jerseys, pants, and even helmets. It is truly an eyesore.

Only Fans.
This might be the best idea ever to come from this board. We can even do meet and greats with the greatest Only Fans models!

Talk about family activities!

Reminds me of some of the Mexican soccer league uniforms that seem to have company names all over the kit. On the hand, it's sad that a major team can't attract a sponsor, but having a clean look to the kit is also a sight to behold.

For a nominal fee, of course.
