@hblethh__ So this is your doing!

[Colonel Calhoun @CalhounColonel]

It’s somewhat funny for fans to get mad about deprioritizing the name Gampel. He bought the naming rights just like M&T did. None of you even know who he was.

Name one thing about Harry Gampel without looking it up and I’ll eat my words.

[Colonel Calhoun @CalhounColonel]

Reportedly $32.5M over 20 years 🤑

UConn's historic Gampel Pavilion has a new name, M&T Bank Center: Haar https://t.co/nkUPRJgufW

[Colonel Calhoun @CalhounColonel]

In case you were looking for the latest board of trustees agenda from today for the details on Gampel, you're out of luck.

Either its now behind a security wall or IT has an issue on their hands @ReitzTweets.

[Colonel Calhoun @CalhounColonel]

Let’s hope they had to pay more than the $1M Harry Gampel paid in 1990.

[UConn Huskies @UConnHuskies]

UConn and M&T Bank are proud to announce a historic expansion of their partnership that includes multiyear naming rights for Gampel Pavilion.

The facility will be officially renamed as M&T Bank Center at Gampel Pavilion.

Drummond with a double double for the Knicks in 1H.

It always comes back to UConn.

So as it turns out, the team providing the officials is dependent on the contract. Sometimes its the home team, sometimes its the away team. UConn always provides ACC refs when responsible.

In all cases, UConn gets screwed.

What’s in the fine print of UConn Football’s 2026 schedule? We take a closer look at the contracts behind the Huskies’ matchups.⤵️

@Licatacs Sir, I watched them play buffalo in a stadium surrounded by a track with a camera pointed at the field from mars.

They are that bad.

[Colonel Calhoun @CalhounColonel]

Bye weeks are fun aren’t they?

[Colonel Calhoun @CalhounColonel]

OT IN BUFFALO

[Colonel Calhoun @CalhounColonel]

Definitely rooting for UMass here to add some juice to the game next week but my gosh these two teams stink.

[Mat Smith @RealMatSmith]

I’m sorry but he deserves a ton of criticism for this. They hired YOU, Coach. You made it this far with a “gimmick system”? Just sat there and watched Tyson fart around? Whew…

Bad look, IMO.

What hs gym is this?
