I wonder if the steep increase in RCAF benefits will actually hurt the program. It's a potential $500 increase for fans that used to park in Basketball lot C to keep that benefit.

If said fan can't afford to give $1,000 to keep that benefit, they can drop to the Coaches Staff/$250 level and only lose walking an additional 25 feet for football.

Probably most are already at the thousand dollar level. I'm thinking there's more people with the thousand dollar level waiting to get closer than those unwilling to pay to stay closer.

I don't know. I would imagine quite a few paid the minimum $500 for Basketball C lot. Those people can either double their donation to stay OR if they can't afford a grand, they can save 50% and suck up minimal excercise during football season.

As far as I recall, isn't this unchanged from years prior? Or, am I looking at an old chart? Hasn't it always been 1000 for a C-lot?

Nope, has been $500 for a few years.

I don't know if it will "hurt" the program, but it will definitely cause people to reduce their commitment. The excellence fund increase for basketball season tickets in combination with RCAF increase for a C lot pass has cost the program and RCAF over $2,000. Now this is the one example I'm aware of.

What was our average attendance last year? Maybe there are people chomping at the bit to get a C lot pass and take over those seats.

Lead the sunbelt at 3,800 per game

This was also better than most CUSA teams

For football you get one c lot and for basketball you get 2 d lots for $500 contribution unless I am reading it wrong.

[CajunEXPRESS]

You're reading it right. They continue to load the wagon with the same mules pulling a heavier and heavier load.

I'm not complaining about the increase, but where's the beef?

Correct. And for 250 less, you can change that C football to lot D, which is about 20 feet difference.

Point I'm making is that there's not much advantage to give in Coaches level from a benefits level. Which id imagine most fans gauge their giving.
