Over the next 30 years, Colorado State will be receiving $20 million from a secret donor to transfer the name of “Sonny Lubick Field” from Hughes Stadium to on-campus stadium when its doors open in 2017.
Head coach of the Rams from 1993-2007, Lubick took a laughing stock of a program and built it from the ground up. Undoubtedly the best coach in Colorado State history, Lubick at 79 years old, is still an active member of the Fort Collins community.
While it may seem odd to name a field after somebody who never coached a down in the new stadium, CSU is making the right move honoring the legendary coach.
