How many events are at RayJay outside BUCS and BULLS? What's the income from those events?

They have countless concerts that fill up the place, (Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift coming up), two regular bowls games, not to mention the national championship and super bowls (which obviously won't apply to a college stadium).

Bottom line.  The people that would be on the hook for the $100 million+ debt, don't feel like it's in our best interest at this time.

Then stop running studies, say we're not building an OCS, and move on.   And don't complain about the lack of support

Because we have not built our Fanbase from the inside.  OCS gets students to games, students graduate with that experience, alumni (who were prior attending students) come back to games, they have children that grow up attending games, a culture and legacy develop...  We can kick this can down the street for years but nothing will change.  The future cost of building will continue to outpace our revenue.  

When I was a student we enjoyed the fact that the games were ar Ray Jay. It was absolutely a plus in our eyes.

I never had any issues with going to RJS. If we played in Spectrum, my seasons tickets would get moved to the couch.

So if our administration came back and said "it is in our best interest to build something similar to what ucf has," you would cancel your season tickets?

Very true.

There is also plenty of opportunity to have other events held in the stadium outside of football.

Steve Spurrier's team is going to be playing on that tin can stadium.  I wonder what the revenue will be from that..

What exactly is “The College Game Day Atmosphere” you speak of?   Did you experience “it” as a student?

 

 

Did you go to the war on I-4 game last year? If you did I think you'd see what he means.

I just wouldn't renew when we made the move.
