A Whopping 9,214 seat stadium,

How conference and NCAA standards have fallen. In 1995 the NCAA told Marshall they had to have a 30K seat stadium to even apply for MAC membership. At the time Marshall Stadium was 28,225, Marshall had to add 2K seats just to please the NCAA. Today the NCAA just let a school in IA with less than a 10K seat stadium.

Sorry if this POs people but I'm getting tired of being lumped in with schools with inadequate athletic facilities.

That isn't acceptable, but this is going to look pretty nice...

That baseball stadium behind it where the National Champs play is pretty sweet too.
Forgive him, Marshall doesn't even have a baseball stadium.

To be fair, the minor league stadium they play at is really nice.

Not going to go into this on this thread. There are two other threads on the CHE and the stadium issues. If you want to discuss this (with inaccurate info you have posted) go there.

Here's the most recent one.....
Coastal Stadium Expansion Plan Denied

So the students give the money to the school, (in the form of raised tuition) and then the school dole's it out to the athletic department? Sounds like a backdoor method of raising student fees to me. In Virginia we've made things much more transparent. It forces us to be much more conservative in the use of student fees. Everybody would be around 70% subsidy if they had to be honest in their reporting.

Great question. I think if most fans of G5 schools looked at how they did things they would see that it isn't an uncommon model.

There is likely a lot of concern because Coastal has less than 10k students, South Carolina is economically depressed and they have already had one system school go bankrupt.

Yet has proven more athletic success than some metroversity commuter schools that rely on student fees from a student population where the majority qualify for pell grants.

I guess it is easy to be "concerned" and point out possible flaws when it isn't your school ...

I've split the thread. Please use the split thread for further stadium discussions. This thread is for a warm and hearty welcome. If people can't follow a simple directive I'll shut this one down.
