I'm in favor of giving the students/young alumni the whole end zone - this means expanding the student section to, I don't know, probably another 2-4 sections. If we want to go in the B1G or ACC, we need to expand our stadium from 40,000 to 50,000 - if we can get the seats filled and our football performs more than average, they will come. Stadium expansion will take many years from now - why not start now by expanding the student and alumni section.
The last few years we averaged a little more than 35,000. That is a couple of thousands of seats available. Give 500-1000 extra seats to the students/alumni. We all know that finance/economics have influence on this matter - its something we have to deal with.
I agree with FDNY99. We had over 500 strong show up at the Dog House Party - what's next for Coach Diaco and the students? Students are able to connect with him because he's young and full of enthusisasm.
