Fair. Happen to know how much that is? Legitimately curious, not a gotcha question.

Think it’s safe to say that broke college kids aren’t the prime demographic the number crunchers are hoping for/counting on.

 

 

Let me see what I can find.

I believe it's still per credit hour.

Maybe @Mike Stuben would know this information.

Presents an interesting dynamic as you already have the students money, so assuming full capacity/high demand, every seat you allot to a student (presumably at a heavily discounted rate)is one less seat that can bring in new money. Balancing act.

No need to put any effort into it. Didn’t know if you knew off-hand. Thx though.

All students have Athletic fees that they pay, so their tickets aren't technically free.

Let's see. Seats for 6 football games at $50 per is $300. Tix for MBB are $15 (?) per times 15 games is $225. How much are Athletic Fees? I thought those fees were now going to pay off the stadium. 340 million over 30 years + interest. I'm guessing that all = good deal for the students. 

All that is to say I think you want to fill the stadium with other than students.

I thought the whole idea behind an OCS was to draw the perfect blend of students and returning alumni.

It is. But what is the perfect blend willing to watch a team that can't beat an over .500 team

NIL without the home stadium is like crapping your paints and solving the issue by changing your shirt.   We need both and a lot of prayers that we do not miss the boat.  I was hoping winning team would drive us but at this point I am not counting on that.

Exactly! USF is Big enough to have both imo.

What if you couldn’t do both? Which one would you choose then?

NIL a stadium is worth NIL no one picks volunteering at an office because the company owns it over getting paid at a nicer office that is rented. It is nuts that anyone thinks the OCS plays a part in any of the important issues of our time, conference realignment and winning. While spending money on nothing and receiving less in return than not spending it has been the VPMK approach to failed athletic leadership, shockingly enough wasting more money on an OCS is going to yield the exact same failed results. Every penny should be going to something that actively get us out of the AAC (some of which may include NIL) and when that happens every penny needs to go to NIL.

Are we? Quite a few folks contend that CAGs not winning because we don’t have enough talent. In the new age of NIL you should be able to buy your way out of that problem.
