If Home Depot offered you a home rebuild at no cost would you accept it? I certainly would.BFcatfan wrote: ↑Sat Jan 04, 2025 10:24 amCataholic wrote: ↑Fri Jan 03, 2025 2:00 pmThere used to be a professional sports venue named the Home Depot Center in Carson, CA.

Home Depot sucks in my world…not a fan of them or Lowe’s. Last resort for me

Arthur Blank retired from Home Depot over 20 years ago so even if he donates a bunch of money that won't be what they name the stadium.BFcatfan wrote: ↑Sat Jan 04, 2025 10:24 amCataholic wrote: ↑Fri Jan 03, 2025 2:00 pmThere used to be a professional sports venue named the Home Depot Center in Carson, CA.

I would be thrilled if they just turned the water fountains back on. They didn't even have the water station under the student section out for the USD game.vike_king wrote: ↑Sat Jan 04, 2025 11:36 amI would be thrilled with more toilets.GoCats18 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 04, 2025 11:06 amThen I guess we settle for heated toilet seats.

Perhaps this has nothing to do with athletics and is actually going to bring down the cost of tuition.

Obviously, but I’m a guy who likes to support local mom and pop stores and businesses. I own a business and understand this concept very well. Their help is very poorly trained in my opinion, but underpaid also. So you get what you pay for. Simple concept.

Re: MSU to receive Game Changing Big Gift?
Simple concept within a vicious cycle. Hinsdale used to have a hardware store, three bars, grocery store, hotel, general store, plumbing business, two cafes, post office and bank all on Main Street which is only two blocks long.

Now just a bank, post office and a bar/restaurant.

Re: MSU to receive Game Changing Big Gift?
If Kenyon Noble wanted the naming rights of the stadium is would be thrilled for it to be called that. The reality is that we're a program big enough that Kenyon doesn't have the capital for naming rights. But I could get behind(for this example) Arthur Blank Stadium, if say that is who the donor was.BFcatfan wrote: ↑Sun Jan 05, 2025 11:11 amCataholic wrote: ↑Sat Jan 04, 2025 10:38 amIf Home Depot offered you a home rebuild at no cost would you accept it?

Re: MSU to receive Game Changing Big Gift?
IF it exists, I can’t imagine it being contingent on winning the whole thing. That’d be quite the carrot to dangle out there and then pull back if a team falls just short.
The prospect of a big gift is exciting, but I’m not giving it too much thought, I’ll believe it when I see it. Sure would be a nice boost to the fanbase morale after these last two days though…

Re: MSU to receive Game Changing Big Gift?
I was really hoping that if this was legit that they would make some sort of NIL deal or put some towards NIL. Unfortunately that can’t be the case considering so many guys are leaving. I guess maybe the players wouldn’t know though. I still believe this is happening though, Colter seemed to give it a good hint and other people seem to be mentioning other things.
