To the best of my knowledge, the only football stadium named for a Texas A&M football player is UT's Neyland Stadium. General Robert Neyland '14 played for a year at A&M before receiving an appointment to West Point.

Didn't know that.
It is also one of the only stadiums I know of that you can travel to in your boat.
I did not know that. Fascinating.

UT so obsessed with A&M they named their stadium after an Ag, some things never change. I thought we left the Big whatever to get away from this kind of thing.
Ray ray!
Neyland played baseball for TAMU

Nashville and Lexington are fantastic road trip destinations. And Kentucky fans are good folks. Might as well make the rounds.

Neyland is an absolutely beautiful stadium. The renovations theyve been doing are top notch.

It's a great venue, the whole town is Orange (not puke orange) but you will get sick of Rocky Top.
My wife will tell you that the only people that get tired of Rocky Top are communist and Florida Gators. (and one old Bulldog fan).
