filled with Gaylords.
Oh shit, what happened to ol Roxter? That dude was funny.....
Who's stadium is actually named Gaylord Stadium?
ok then i'll ask you. What's worse, Gaylord Stadium or a stadium named after an OU grad?
ok, then I'll answer.
when said stadium named after a native Okie and OU AA is located in Texas, at the alleged flagship university of the state of texas, I'd say it's worse for you texas boys....
So Gaylord >an OU grad
Now be honest, you're mad your stadium had to sell their naming rights, and you're mad Gaylord was the one that bought them. Wilkinson Stadium would be much better, if your school hadn't sold out.
I know you're about as sharp as a marble, but in this case, I'll give you a break....
The OU Board of Regents honored the Gaylord family by renaming Oklahoma Memorial Stadium the Gaylord Family-Oklahoma Memorial Stadium at its meeting Wednesday at the OU Health Sciences Center in Oklahoma City.
The new name will appear when the clock tower on the north side of the stadium is completed. OU President David L. Boren said the change was a way to honor Edward L. Gaylord and his family for the more than $50 million they have donated to OU.
Before the name change could be presented, however, the Gaylord family made some requests about the stadium. They did not want to have any commercial enterprises be a part of the name, such as Gaylord Entertainment Stadium. The name Owen Field, the playing field, could not be altered, nor could Oklahoma Memorial Stadium be removed from the new name.
The last request the Gaylord family made was to use part of their $12 million donation to build a monument to all OU students, faculty and staff who have died while serving in the U.S. Armed Forces.
Boren said the donations the Gaylord family has made have gone almost unnoticed, as the family made many of the donations anonymously. He said the family stepped in when the city of Norman would not agree to a tax, like Stillwater did for OSU's Lewis Field.

Don't forget "Who's layin' the wood" this season...
So you confirmed what Johnny D said. OU sold out for money rather than name their stadium after their greatest head coach. Gotcha.....
It's been a while since a good ol' trash talk with Northern Mexico.
