I was watching one of their games earlier in the season, and they had mentioned that when the stadium was built, there were extra pillars put in place for future expansion.

IF we were to get that big we would eventually start charging them too. Additional revenue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Carolina's stadium isn't on their campus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was also thinking about the land on the north side of Fletcher near river park. I think USF still ownes all of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
