Two things ... why the double reference to SC State? They are on your schedule in the future?

Secondly, Hyman is right. With the rise of TV coverage and big screens it is a mistake to build bigger these days. Instead you should be building more luxurious.

Michigan claims sold-out Big House, but they never do and it looks bad when they do and they claim the placed is packed and there are empty seats everywhere.

There is a huge difference between a "sold-out stadium," and a "capacity crowd."

Tennessee has not packed their place in half a decade now. Penn State, Ohio State, So Cal, all with big stadiums none of which have capacity crowds very often. Does Texas ever fill War Memorial?

So no one is saying anything but again, this goes back to the belt buckles in Texas. I would be willing to bet this is about one thing, and one thing only ... it's about having a slightly bigger belt buckle than the Longhorns. And I get that, I do ... everyone does, but it is going to look like a huge mistake if you do not fill the place.
