Lets think of out of box ways to increase attendance.  

How about holding classes at the stadium on gameday?

What about partnering with mons for an adult only night (they can supply the entertainment)?

USF media support in the Tampa Bay market is non existent.  Not only do they not support USF, I believe some of them go out of their way to put us down.

You would think they would support this move.  Wouldn't they rather cover a USF - Oklahoma game than a USF - Tulane game?

How about a publix sponsored pregame tailgate?

I agree w/ OCS statement.  I think that it would make an instant impact with students.  I'm not sure if that would help with alumni and area residents.  I'm an out of town bull and when I asked friends about the game, although many went, some watched it on tv because it was "too hot."  

One other observation as I now only travel for a few games - As much as I enjoy drinking a beer or 5 at the game, that honestly keeps people out of their seats.

Well said. And keep in mind the OCS will still see beer. That is one of the reasons that they will get OCS. USF willl get more money in beer sales.

I think having a stadium on campus would greatly improve the atmosphere for the games. Id love to tailgate and walk around the campus. An ocs would allow more people to see just how nice our campus is. The atmosphere at Ray Jay sucks.

My comment was in response to "needing excuses" not an OCS.

Clearly, ANY Thread can become an OCS thread...

USF has had the Sun Dome on campus for almost 4 decades....need I say more?

That is basketball. We are talking about football. 16k looks & feels better in a 40k OCS than a 65k pro stadium. Don't think you can even argue that.
