I realize the south Louisiana/Lafayette economy hasn’t fully recovered but definitely agree that the performance over the past 3 seasons support should be stronger.Quote:

Honestly I don’t think we need more than 25k seats after the renovation. 25k plus the hill is perfect. It is a shame though that the best 3 year stretch in football history is averaging below 20k in that span. The kids and staff deserve better.Quote:

Coming soon to a Cajun Field near you...USM, Marshall, ODU, JMU...you get the idea...Quote:

Scheduling 2 P5 schools, including a top 10 program, and winning both is not enough to get into the playoffs.
However, it might be the new minimum to make a NY6 Bowl.
Schedule accordingly.
6 good weather Saturday home games we would be averaging close to 30k a game.Quote:

Always a “fun” debate. I do agree that “today” we don’t NEED 41,000 seating capacity. Heck, there are several P5 stadiums smaller than CF. But we also can’t go crazy making it much smaller. I think we all pretty much agree that the modernization effort with slightly reduced capacity will meet our needs for now. As many have stated, make it a place people want to be and the entertainment dollars should follow; especially with the current product. But we definitely need to fill it more than once every couple years! And I know I’m being generous with that statement….Quote:

At 25k we would have had 2 sellouts this season. You guys act like we have anything but a losing tradition.Quote:

In fact if we get 5 Saturday home games, with good weather and Napier still the coach next season. We will average over 30k per game. Especially if the game times are at 4pm or 6pm.
