Do we need a new stadium? Yes Should we build big for the future? Yes Do we have the money currently for a new stadium? No Will we soon have the funding available for a new stadium in the 30-35k range? I think so. Will it take several years longer to raise the money for a 40-45k stadium? Yes Can we build a smaller stadium in the next couple years and then use the extra revenue to expand the stadium? Yes Do I like the idea of building a stadium smaller than our current student body no. But we don't have the support to demand a bigger stadium yet and if we build what we can afford now and then establish the student and alumni support we think we deserve than the school wold be stupid not to start planning the expansion immediately. They say if you build it they will come and if that the case we build it than the money needed for the next phase will be a given. Once we fill a 30-35k stadium with our size and expected growth the next phase will happen withing 5 years not making the expansion would be financial suicide. Again do I want a bigger stadium yes but can we afford it or deserve it currently no so let please take what we can get and move the hell out of Fouts.
