[QUOTE="bobhertzel'ssweatpants, post: 129510310, member: 1056714"] The stadium capacity at Baylor's stadium is only 45,000. If you want to drop the capacity to 45,000, then we probably could build a new one for around $250 million. If we want to stay near 60,000, you are probably looking at $350 million+ & could approach $400 million+ by the time it is done. There is no way to know for sure without a true cost analysis. Personally I think we should drop capacity to around 55,000 as the stadium is too big for our population base around Morgantown. Same thing with the Coliseum. Drop capacity to around 10,000 at the Coliseum. The biggest problem when it comes to renovations of facilities is that you are basically trying to keep up with the Jones & we never will. We don't have the money in this state to keep up. And if you don't keep up, it's tough to compete with them on the field consistently. [/QUOTE]
