Was my first reaction, too ..... but it changed when I thought of us actually winning our game.

We need one big time donor to step up.

Didn't I read somewhere that the Glazers help fund Tulane's stadium?

Wife is an alumna ... we need to find one like that, too.

OMG.  His son Avram is a spitting imagine of the old man.

FAUs is pretty nice looking. Seats 30k.... can put a 3rd level on the left side of this picture and have a nice 40k stadium.

I real like how they have the stands colored.

I went to a Florida all star game or something there a while back. Bowden was also there on the sidelines. Anyway, the stadium looks OK but the seats were painful to sit in. There was like no leg room or something. Like sitting on a cramped airplane. I might almost prefer bleachers to FAU seats.

Granted, if we had our own maybe we could finally stand without being ejected?

I believe no matter what, USF would never build an OCS with a smaller capacity than ucf's

Exactly...this^^^

 

Im guessing something like what they have at East Carolina.  Maybe a Semi-Closed Bowl, with one side having am upper level, with Seating Capacity of around 45-50k.  Im thinking back to our big east years and remembering, didnt we average around 44k for games back then.  Basically a sell out of RayJay's lower bowl?

If we can somehow coincide a move to the Big12 or another power5 conference with an OCS, and play better competition(and keep winning) averaging 45-50k shouldnt be an issue.  my $0.02.

GO BULLS!!!

I perfer Stanford's Stadium. Two thirds of the stadium is under ground, you can use the earth for supports and that would really lower the cost. Exapansion is easy since the lower deck will not need strong supports. An upper deck wold be built like the lower deck of most other stadiums.

 

 

Great idea but wouldnt work in Florida.  Im no architect, or geologist, but it rains a WHOLE lot more in Tampa florida than it does in palo alto.  And you cant dig more than two/three feet into the ground in swampy florida without hitting water.  

 

So yeah...no underground.  

 

GO BULLS!!!

So I've been to many of these stadiums (Minnesota, Baylor, North Texas, etc..) But the one I have not seen mentioned that I find to be one of the best and most underrated stadiums and campuses in the country is TCU.  This stadium is beautiful and with a capacity of 45,000 should be exactly what we are looking for.  The details of the stadium truly reflect an atmosphere that radiates purple and the team brand everywhere.  The stone working in and around the stadium also offer rich detail and true tradition (no chain link to be found).  If you ever get a chance to visit this campus do yourself a favor and go.  The stadium is open to the public, the campus is gorgeous and the surrounding area lends itself to an amazing gameday atmosphere.

 

DING DING DING!!!

 

THIS ONE!!! 

Make it 45k and call it a day...

Perfect.
