From 1995 to 1998 there were few players more feared in college football than CSU defensive end Joey Porter. In his four seasons in Fort Collins, Porter recorded 20 quarterback sacks, 28 tackles for loss, eight fumbles forced and one interception. As a senior in 1998, he was named first-team All-WAC. He went on to be drafted in the third round of the 1999 NFL Draft and played 13 years in the League, earning four Pro Bowl selections and a Super Bowl XL title. He became the first player in NFL history to record 10 career interceptions and 70 career sacks, and additionally, became the first player to register at least five sacks in 11 consecutive seasons. After a year as an undergraduate student assistant at CSU, he is now in his third season with the Pitts- burgh Steelers, serving as outside linebackers coach. QUICK HITS 9 COLORADO STATE FOOTBALL

COMING HOME IN 2017 After five decades of playing at Hughes Stadium, the Rams will bring football back to campus beginning in 2017. The new, $220 million on-campus stadium will have a ca- pacity of 41,000, and is located in the heart of campus, at the intersection of Pitkin and Meridian (Hughes Stadium is located approximately three miles west of campus). The state-of-the-art, multi-purpose stadium will have the ability to be used by multiple sports teams and will have an alumni center and academic space built in.

Site prep began in May 2015, and a groundbreaking ceremony took place prior to the Rams’ contest against Minnesota last September. More than a year before kickoff, all Indoor Club and Outdoor Club premium seats were sold out, with a very limited number of other premium seating options still available. While stadium naming rights are still on the table, CSU has received generous donations from several partners ($20 million gift by an anonymous donor to forever name the field Sonny Lubick Field; a $4.3 million gift from New Belgium Brewing Company to name the north end zone hospitality area the New Belgium Porch; a $3.5 million gift by alumnus Michael Smith to name the alumni center within the stadium the Michael & Iris Smith Alumni Center).
