Will be moving from Raymond James stadium to a more intimate modern stadium, good for USF. Kinda looks like Yulman to me.

USF has released a first look at its $340 million on-campus stadium
• 35,000 seats
• Dedicated student section
• Built to maximize shade during the day

Great for them, never liked college teams playin NFL stadium, offers no home field advantage because stadium are normal too big for college fan base, and hurts recruiting, see Miami as an example

Too big. Should be 25k max

All of these schools which are gonna be left out of a future super conference playoff are gonna struggle with attendance and money

What’s USF avg attendance? They have a student enrollment of almost 40k, shouldn’t be that hard to atleast fill it up 70%

They have like 5k less students living on campus than ucf and ucf averages 43k in attendance with a a shittier interstate situation.

Not sure. Of course ucf only averages that because they haven't sucked while usf still sucks, so you're probably right on 25-30k.

The stadium is a huge waste of money that is going to eventually bankrupt the school. College football is contracting and USF missed their window.

I think that college football is going to be extremely different 10 years from now. I could see a scenario where there is a single mega conference eating up all the TV money and the smaller schools shutting down programs.
