Not to mention, UGA doesn't come to UF.  Game is almost always, with very few exceptions, at a neutral site.

When we open our new stadium a few years from now, I hope we wear the white helmets.

I have to tell you that MANY kids base part of their decision on where to go to college on what the "experience" is like on campus. The excitement level during the football season appears much greate

I know they haven't done it with the Sun Dome because USF doesn't own it, but another factor to consider in helping to pay off any financing of an OCS is that we could easily sell naming rights for a

Since you brought up UF, how much debt do you think they have on the Swamp?  How much debt would we have with our own OCS?  I assure you it would be a hell of a lot more than UF.

 

They probablly pay a fraction in upkeep of the Swamp, as we do in rental fees and lost revenue to the TSA to play in Rutgers Stadium.

 

Also we are leasing space at Ray Jay vs buying something outright, paying it off, and owning it.

Do you have any actual numbers?  Also, you failed to mention the loan debt.

 I agree .... renting sucks. We should be in the business of flipping stadiums.

Sure, all we need is $200 M to $300 M and we can build an OCS and own it outright.  I we can earn an extra $2M per year by owning our own stadium, it'll only take us 100+ years worth of profits for it to pay for itself!

Dang, another OCS thread, just what we needed.

In case you were not sure, USF does not equal UF.

To think moving to an OCS would help us is crazy. We had 22k at a home game in RJS so taking on $150M in debt to support 22k attendees is an idiodic move. Just saying.

Wish these stupid OCS threads would die. And this one wasn't even from one of the trolls from the east.

So I was listening to some guys on the radio this morning.  One thing to keep in mind is that the big donors have much nicer facilities in RayJay available than they would have in any OCS that we could afford to build.  Just one more factor to keep in mind.

$150 Million, I think it would be like $200 Million.

Your math is off, he said that make about 2 million per GAME, not per season.

 

6 sometimes 7 home games a year is an additional 12 to 14 million a year.

 

I also think the point of the OP was that we probably don't even make 2 million a year from Ray Jay revenue.
