    I just read an article about Stuller expanding in Lafayette. As North America's largest fine jewelry manufacturer and located in Lafayette, I would suggest UL approach them with a commitment to fund the "Stuller Square" and add that to the overall project to complete the finished look of the athletic complex. Seems like a natural fit and not too expensive a project to fund.
    The “Stuller Square” idea sounds interesting and appropriate

    If you’ve ever been in their facility, they have a huge (square) common area right in the middle of their building that is used as a cafeteria and break area. With the tight security coming and going from their facility (due to the value of what’s inside) it limits the trips in and out by employees

    Yep. They missed their chance.

    So, now, Notre Dame has Touchdown Jesus. We will have Our Lady.

    I will repeat what I have stated a few times before. Matt Stuller has ZERO interest in sports. He helps the university and community in a myriad of other ways. If he comes on board with athletic fund raising, I will be shocked.

    You would think that with all jewelry and bling today’s athletes like to wear, maybe Dr. Maggard could convince Mr. Stuller that a little investment in athletics could be viewed as an advertising expense!

    When Mike says ZERO interest in sports, he means ZERO INTEREST IN SPORTS.

    I actually ran into Mr. Marino at the Lafayette airport about 8 or so years ago.

    Advertising value is the door he will walk through.

    When Mercedes put their name on the Super Dome, it wasn't because the brass in Germany has any interest in New Orleans football. ZERO

    Advertising.
