Thanks for the link. Does using a name as part of a celebration fall under advertising?

I don't think it's illegal. Honoring someone isn't advertising. #hailstate was. Honering someone wouldn't be different than how you paint special things to honor other things like America, veterans, cancer awareness, etc. We do that stuff all the time.
We probably just rolled over and self imposed some harsh penalties. Look at all the tomfoolery they pulled while Freezus was there, they didn't cooperate and got fairly minor penalties considering the scope of their rule breaking. We have a few athletes cheat on a low level exam, self reported and get the book thrown at us.
What is the difference in having past players names in a ring of honor on the stadium itself?
