JMA Wireless to Take Over Naming Rights of Carrier Dome (Report) /

Syracuse Orange's stadium will no longer be called the Carrier Dome. Syracuse has negotiated an exit deal with Carrier and the naming rights have been granted to JMA Wireless. This all according to a report from Sportico

Carrier previously had a lifetime naming rights agreement that has been in place since the Dome's inception in 1980. Syracuse was losing out on significant revenue as the value of the deal was significantly outdated. The University has now negotiated an end to that deal, which should provide more income for the school and athletics department. 

This is the first name change in the Dome's history but is not the first update overall. The school has spent a lot of money over the last few years modernizing and upgrading the Dome both inside and out. The roof is brand new, the concourses are wider and there is now air conditioning inside the building. 

The long running joke always was that an air conditioning company owns the Dome but the Dome does not have air conditioning. Ironically, within a couple of years of air conditioning being added, Carrier has been removed. 

So what is JMA Wireless exactly? Here is more from their website

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting.  EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans.  After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years.  Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports.  Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
