RE: KBS Expansion?
If they have demand for that many premium seats that would be impressive.
Combined with what we have that would be 30 boxes @ 20-30k each, over 2,000 club seats @ $1,000 each, and over 200 loge seats @ $1,500 seat.
That’s $3M in premium seat revenue.

I guess I’ve officially lost track with what’s going on in Boone, I was there when Moore couldn’t get money for new uniforms, I guess I’m still of the mindset we are lucky to pay our bills

Supposedly the waiting list for club seats over on the West Tower is currently around 600, so the demand is definitely there.

I look forward to the day JMU decides that they want to make Bridgeforth Stadium symmetrical. If you get to that point and can fill it up this conference is going to be rocking even more than it already is.

I don't think Shawn Clark is the issue. App hasn't had the same offensive coordinator in back to back years since 2018. A lot of freshman and sophomores are playing on defense at every level and there was a freshman at center who was having issues with protection calls.
I think the biggest issue had been a departure from what App usually does on offense and that's get physical and ram the ball. They did it at Texas A&M then Peoples and Noel were both injured until Georgia State so I believe Clark wanted to go along with the air raid plan. Finally, against GSU, he told Barbay to just run the ball. Quit trying to go deep because the defense is manning up and just ram it down their throats as App has been known to do since 2015.
The result was over 400 yards rushing. Clark just seems slow to fix things but it sort of seems like 2014 when App started 2-5, then Satterfield made some changes after Liberty and App has won 9 or more games every year since.
We will see what happens in a week and a half.

Let us know. We're having trouble finding the last remaining bits of $65 million for CF upgrade.
$100 million is very impressive. Renderings look great
Call in Brett.

I’m guessing there is too much Rock below the field and App State can’t dig down to build front row seats closer to the field? That is the only problem in my eyes. The seats are simply too far from the field due to the old high school track configuration.
The expense to move the stands 15 feet closer is not justified imo. It really is a non issue unless you are looking for something to nit pick.

KBS and Neyland have similar spacing. No biggie.
