Don Coryell WAS Aztec Football.They should name the Athletic Center after him. His name needs to been seen every day by every athlete who walks into that building.

Donate a few million dollars and I'm sure you could make it happen. Or make it one of your demands when you climb the clock tower with a rifle.

My idea: CORYELL FIELD at QUALCOMM STADIUM. It is already Jack Murphy Field. I mentioned this last week - hopefully they'll get it done by the fall. Coryell Hall. |

Coryell Field at Barona Stadium. That dump Albert's apartments would never look so good. |

From TJ simmers:
I miss Don Coryell, who died while I was gone, as wonderful a person as he was a football innovator. Coryell is a reminder the NFL has it all wrong in allowing the media to determine who goes into the Hall of Fame, like any of those scribes know a good offensive lineman from a bad one. They certainly couldn't recognize a good coach from a brilliant one in keeping Coryell out.
It was published a couple days ago but I just read it, and think it speaks to the Man that a guy like TJ would write that.

It's rare that TJ writes anything positive and even more rare when he does it about anything SD related. That was a classy move on his part. |

it was a bunch of TJ nonsense so I didn't link it, a big picture of Don on the front page of the article though.

My idea: CORYELL FIELD at QUALCOMM STADIUM. Assuming the stadium goes away at some point, there's no guarantee the name sticks with it. Needs to be something on campus. The Athletics building, the hall of fame, something that will stay forever. |

Air Coryell Stadium on the SDSU campus.
It will be down the street from "Steve Fisher court at Viejas Arena"
