This talk of seating capacity and attendance got me thinking about how we stack up to our perceived peers & rivals. I've listed each schools capacity in parenthesis, followed by average attendance, followed by percentage of capacity. IMO, it kind of points exactly to where the seating capacity has to be - minimum of 5,200 through 6,500 if future proofing is built in. No way you can go from having a top 3 attended team downsized to a bottom 3 sized arena. That 4,500 number can't be right. Makes zero sense.
