Just saw this on Phil Steele. Why has this not been reported on here or did it just happen? Ciome on fans. "Roos Field", cool.
 
I think everyone has sort of known about it........just hadn't seen anything official from the University until this article. While I think it's awesome what Roos has done for EWU and the AD in particular, I am wondering if this was a bit premature. I mean, what happens if someone comes along a couple years down the road and donates a million dollars to stadium upgrades. Are they going to change the name again then? I know Michael Roos has done a ton more than just donate for the turf, but. Just sayin'.

Then the stadium can be named after them. It's Roos FIELD. :P

I don't know why we don't have separate dedications to both the stadium and field, like UM has Washington-Grizzly Stadium, and John Hoyt Field

Future Donor Stadium
Roos Field aka The Red Carpet :D

Hey, for a couple hundred grand you could probably get your name on the score board. I can just see it now... courtesy of the "BLACKFALKIN" , cool!!
 
I never understood why they didnt call it woodward stadium/Roos Stadium. Or Roos Field@ Woodward Stadium. Naming it "Field" sounds.....like a baseball stadium

Agreed, it should've been Roos Field (after all, he paid for the turf), at Woodward Stadium.
