I'm pretty sure that Baylor built a new stadium - it did not reduce capacity of an existing stadium.

There is no need to reduce the capacity of the Carrier Dome.

There would only be a need if there were a groundswell of demand for expensive luxury boxes - and there is no such demand. Not even close.

So, from a math standpoint you don't reduce capacity. And, with a program that is now in a major conference with teams like Clemson and FSU coming to town you don't reduce capacity - you increase capacity.

And if your butt doesn't like the bench seats or the steel backing, I understand completely. The seats are uncomfortable at Penn State and Indiana, Rutgers, North Carolina, and almost every other college venue I have attended. If it is not comfortable, go watch the game at Tully's. They have really nice chairs and the lines for beer are really short.

And if you're suggesting that the BB capacity should be reduced to 18,000, then you really don't get what made the program a national program or how the size of the crowds gives Syracuse a trademark or what makes the 30,000 games so compelling.

We just disagree completely on this issue.
