In case you missed it

On May 21 Texas State University and University Federal Credit Union officials announced the signing of a multitiered contract for renaming Bobcat Stadium to UFCU Stadium. The naming rights deal is the largest corporate sponsorship in the Sun Belt Conference for naming rights at a football stadium. It is also one of the largest for a college football stadium in Texas, according to a news release.

What they're saying

Texas State President Kelly Damphousse said the university has been great partners with the member-owned, not-for-profit financial cooperative for many years.

"They, for example, have provided a lot of literacy training for our students who come here to learn about how to handle credit, how to handle banking and so on. But this is a monumental, historic agreement," Damphousse said. "What a great day to be a Bobcat."

UFCU CEO and President Michael Crowl said the partnership was off to a "fantastic start."

"This is just the beginning, and we're just getting started," Crowl said.
