Please, please tell me Louisville is going to name its new academic center for Maker’s Mark.
Louisville athletic director Tom Jurich and Makers Mark COO Rob Samuels will hold a press conference later today announcing a partnership that will bring a new academic center to the University of Louisville.
The Academic Center of Excellence will be built under the South Terrace at Papa John’s Cardinal Stadium. All of the proceeds from the Charlie Strong commemorative Makers Mark bottle which was released last week will go towards the project.
Yep, it’s one day after Mark Emmert nuked Penn State and you can already feel the culture of college athletics changing for the better.
Hey it could be “Devils Cut”.

If South Carolina could get Keebler as a sponser, they could have the “Keebler Elf Stadium”, thus appeasing two entities with one title!

Sorry, the correct spelling is “sponsor”.

Actually, on behalf of the University of Alabama I have already been in contact with Keebler about that and in addition to renaming our stadium “Elf Field” they want me to be the “Spokes Elf” for their new national ad campaign.

Any attempts to name it “Effing” Field will be met by litigation from the Fing Scooter Corp.

Soon CFB will be like NASCAR. I can see Paul Johnson’s post game interview. “Well Coach, you almost broke that punt return early in the third quarter and your Yahoo .
