"Florida Gators athletic director reveals details for stadium renovations"

I think you threatened him.

 

We need a more positive sstament from the AD not a non committing reference to stadium capacity

 

LOL, I caught that too. Ooops, missed our goal, sorry.

 

Another way to keep those seats filled is to field a better team. Another decade of this and.....

 

The only way to do some of the upgrades is to lose seating....they have always hoped to minimize that aspect and that remains the case. Nothing new to see here

 

Need to look under the couch cushions for a few more wins...

 

I suspect you are right. In essence, Stricklin said nothing more than it wasn't their goal to reduce seats but they really don't have a plan yet.

 

A whole lotta tiptoeing through the tulips by the AD on this reduction and there will be a reduction. The AD knows best.

 

Trust the process..

 

This is the key phrase.

Their goal isn’t to reduce capacity. Their goal is to do some other stuff (justify their existence, add premium seating, etc) and the byproduct of that is less capacity, a neutered experience, and less home field advantage.

 

Of course. Unless I am going to get hurry up degrees in architecture, engineering and college athletic economics, it doesn't seem like I have much choice.

Nah. Forget that.

I'll just be an internet know it all, and bitch and complain about every decision UAA makes. That's easy!!

 

The plans are the plans. Less capacity and less noise, but more comfort.

 

Huh???

I don't think they have plans yet.

Do you know something different?

 

Can't fill it up now.

 

Reduced seating seems to be the order of the day.

Ex: Nebraska’s half-billion dollar stadium renovations will reduce seating capacity from 90k to 75k. This despite …

396 consecutive sellouts in spite of seven straight losing seasons.

This despite …

92,000 showed for a LADIES VOLLYBALL MATCH.

Arguably the most fanatical fans in America.

We should be trying to do the opposite as Nebraska
