I think USF Athletics needs to think of ways to improve attendance and how stadium looks on tv.

1. Reward season ticket holders that show up for games with either % discounts for next year season tickets or discounted bowl games tickets. This if they are able to keep track of that. We do not have large numbers of season tickets and maybe having a specific gate with scanner would help with that. Reward fans for showing to game.

2. Lower season ticket prices for the East side to encourage more to buy there. It's not fun due to sun but it's also the side always empty and shown to tv.

3. Move student section and band back to the East side corner. We do not have many season ticket holders in that area, so it would make it look better for tv.

4. End Zone were students are now could be covered by USF Logo when we have less than 40k tickets sold. Otherwise they could be game day general admission tickets at lower prices than rest of stadium.

USF needs to decide wether they REALLY want to compete with the rest of FBS or become an afterthought. if Houston, Tulane and Colorado State can build OCS why can't we? Enough with the excuses.

I really, really want one on campus, but I don't think our fan base has earned an OCS yet. Although the student section was condensed in size from seasons past, the students represented well. They are

My bigger concern was the announced attendance of 26k, which included a ton of hs band members and families ... and I don't give a **** who the opponent is, JT, if you can't sell/distribute 40k to USF

Yes!! Now we have to predict the year. Some are saying by 2020 but I think it may take longer. Maybe 2025. But definitely by 2030.

The sooner the better we need it now. The gameday experience is bad.

Agree. Which makes it very easy for fans not to show for any reason. An OCS on campus that becomes more than just going to a game would make it more attractive. They could have on campus events before and after games to create more for a reason to show up. Right now is very sterile just like a pro game.

I've been saying this for years! We have lot of season ticket holders who miss games frequently. I feel like those of us who use all our tickets every week should get something. It could be pregame field passes, tours of the locker room,  a special giveaway, etc. Most of my ideas costs USF nothing.

Going back to campus is special to me. Ray Jay does nothing to get you excited about the game.

I agree, but 2030 is too far out. If realignment occurs we want to be ready and not in the planning phase.

I think it will be open for business by that year. I'm thinking more like 2025 than 2020. 2020 is just about 3 years away. The blueprints and all should be ready by 2020 though.
