This, we should not expand general seating until we have a very established fan base. It still isn't there. We didn't even have great attendance this year until our final two games. Hopefully people understand the atmosphere UCF is capable of producing and the city as a whole buys in more.
If we do expand, box seating is the right way to go. It'll fill in the place nicely without needing a bunch of fans that aren't there yet.
I'd rather continue to upgrade amenities and façade the outside of the stadium before we expand. Reinforce the stadium with concrete structures. If we do expand the first thing should be the tower extension.
This. It’ll add to atmosphere, increase capacity, and make the stadium more aesthetic

Nearly 20000 season tickets sold. Almost seven months until the first home game of the season.

Quality over quantity.
...if that was the case, you would add water fountains to your facility.
That's all you have left. Think about that for few minutes and take a lap little brother

Ucf is providing for the AAC experience. My main gripe with this conference is the number of empty stadiums.

Go Knights!
It’s a whole different animal than basketball. As you settle into The American and start to experience higher level competition and stakes, you’ll notice all the little nuances. It’s quite complex but so very rewarding.

Correct...as team's don't need just more regular capacity....as team's keep focusing on more premium chair back seating options (i.e. like UCF turning all lower sideline seats into a premium club and now most 2nd level sideline seats too).
Also the rendering shows an plain expansion of a 3rd level on the EAST SIDE, which will never happen because that's the sunny side (hardest to sellout, even though much, much cheaper pricing than similar West Side seats).
Only expansion on East Side would be an air-conditioned tyoe club/suite area.

RJS has 3 water fountains which is 2 more than what is needed for a typical USF home game crowd.
