Veazey's blog says that the Mize Foundation has naming rights to the new practice facility.

What name should go on it?

His name needs to be on something substantial before it's too late for him to see it himself.

Edited to add it's a damn travesty that LT has a building named after him and Jack doesn't, retired or not.

I think it should be Jack Cristil Court at Humphrey Coliseum.

It only takes 50 years and a new athletic director to raise his number to the rafters and to name the new practice facility just months after that would be sweet justice. The Howell Center.

I could live with that. Regardless, it needs to be done soon.

I believe some of the money Hemphill Construction pledged will be used. Rumor is their name might be on the court in the facility.

I agree, Jack Cristil Court at the Hump needs to be done soon....his signature on the court with the picture of him at the mic with cigarette in hand....classic

I think it would be appropriate to put Jack's name on something at the football stadium and at the Hump. Hell, I'd love to see one of those huge banners we just hung at Davis Wade with Jack in front of a microphone on it with "Great Calls" or "Great Moments". Not sure about the court, but I'd love to see Jack's name in the rafters right next to Baily Howell. In my mind, the man has given more and means more to MSU Athletics than few people ever will.

them do something at the Hump now for Jack and then when they renovate the press box at Davis Wade name it the Jack Cristil Press Box or something along those lines.

And now that I think of it, when they redo the bathrooms we should name them the "Larry Templeton Crappers". If that's too much, the least we need to do is have bronze bust's of LT in the urinals to give everbody something to aim at.

Have a statue of Varnado stuffing Scotty Hopson in front of it, and the inscription could be "17 no."

it will be the Mize Pavillion I think. Not positive about the pavillion part but that seems to ring a bell from what I heard from one of the family members.

Edited to add that I didnt know it was common knowledge that the Mize's had the naming rights as just seen on Veazey's blog.
