Regardless of reasons, need to show your fans will show up. I also understand locals are not happy with new BSU Pres.

Wasn’t it Jamaal Williams that said BSUs facilities felt like a high school?

Boise fans always have some weird obsession to try and denigrate BYU.

Vast majority have never been to a big school facility. They can't fill their own stadium much less travel to others.

And you were right above. BSU facilities are better than many BYU fans realize & BYU's are better than BSU fans realize.

I also understand that there are many BYU fans that would love to tear down LES

Most BYU fans just want more leg room & a nicer facade by adding a brick wall around it.

You should try traveling to a few road games. It'll open your eyes.

Deal - but only if you don't pretend that those stadiums represent the majority.

I have a list, but I'm not going to throw it out there to be nitpicked.

The UofU stadium was upgraded for the Olympics before 2002.

But if already P5 facilities, why the need for expansion?
