You dont NEED a new stadium btw, literally as is- there is no reason the FFD isnt adequate. the only requirement is that you have an average actual OR Paid attendance of 15k/game over a 2 year period http://fs.ncaa.org/Docs/AMA/Division...2%208%2010.pdf . Dont NEED to do anything with the FFD or build new. People saying "oh but that pesky issue of the new stadium, and its gOtTa be indoor too, you got the money?!" its simply not true. Would we WANT to do something? Sure! The FFD has plans literally right now to increase capacity by about 1,200 and add many high level suite options, double the size of the concourses, and they are vocal about being committed to footing at least half the bill. Its all readily available for your reading pleasure. type in "Fargodome authority meeting minutes on google and go nuts
From a Facility perspective, we are an IPF away from having FBS level football facilities and then we could stop strawman-ing the hell out of the facilities argument... if ONLY we could convince our Athletic department to build an IPF.. if ONLY! and If only we could convince our athletic department to renovate all of the facilities over the last decade. THEN we would be in business!
