I know this is on another thread but that one seemed to get a bit off topic, so I am going to start a new one. You guys all along have been referring to the SAC as the student athletic center...however it really will stand for SEBO athletic center. How did I find this out you ask? Well any of you could have done the same thing..... I went to the north endzone today behind the fence and looked at the drawing of the SAC and it is covered up by a white piece of cardboard velcroed to the board. I did a little CSI investigating and peeled the velcro back
(dont tell anyone!) and sure enough, the name behind it was Sebo. So there you have it falcon fans, if it wasnt almost guaranteed already, it is now. Go falcons

I think that they should spell SAC instead. That would be great.

From what I've heard, it will be called the Sebo Athletic Center now. Could just be a rumor but either way, student or Sebo = SAC!

Ok, for those out of the loop, who or what is Sebo? Is this a really great guy that decided to write an $8 Million dollar check or am I missing something???

In band today they said something about a guy who donated something like 4.5 million dollars to the project. It's too bad i spent my last 4.5 million on beer and hookers, or i might be in the mix too...

That must have been some pretty good beer and some GREAT hookers...

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but Sebo is J. Robert Sebo, a former Trustee and big-wig...He has a suite in stadium, I do believe.

I could be wrong, though.

You are entirely right, that would be the guy. He is donating 4.4 million which I dislike. He could have easily donated the even 4 million and gave me the .4!!!

Sebo and some other guys started a company called Paychex, an automated payroll system that thousands of comapnies use. He has made millions off of this company and has kindly donated some money to the school... if you werent paying attention there was an additional one million dollar donation to BGSU for academics...
