no. We're gonna look back in ten years and laugh at all these schools with over 90,000 with tons of empty seats.

Just say no. Improve what we have, more luxury boxes, scholarship seats, but no to getting bigger.

Obviously we're not expanding anytime soon. It was a joke.

I agree. I thought i would be an alumnus that bought season tickets and went to every game. This will be my 12th season since graduation and i find myself less interested in the drive, fighting for parking, missing other games on tv, not to mention the ever increasing expense that comes with it.

I agree if we can do something to just get over the 90 mark that's fine, but mostly just need to modernize the stadium it's not like anyone that wants to go to the games can't go but with increasing price of attendence and 60in big screens the trend is decreasing attendence around the country

I'd rather upgrade first, make it look nicer. Brick up the outside. BRICKS. All white bricks. Off white bricks. Light tan bricks.

I just want to see the north end zone facade not look like an erector set. This should be one of the first things done with the new SEC Network money.

We can hang some more tarps, we like to do that. In all seriousness, the stadium needs a face lift and more luxury seats badly. JHS looks like something from Chernobyl from the outside.

I would like to be able to claim 90k+ capacity. Other than that we just need to upgrade. Spend $$$ on player amenities and newer practice facilities.
