I can see them adding a larger 2nd deck with ~7,500 seats to visitor side, small second level ( high end luxury 1,500-2k seats)+ 2 rows of luxury boxes/suites/maybe a restaurant/etc to home side, and then later/last fill in north end zone berm (~2.5k seats), and leave the south end zone as grass (perhaps add an elevated patio zone/seating behind it). This will have it be somewhat symmetrical in size and around 25k and would be one of the nicer G6 stadiums in FBS.
My wish would be to at least add some sort of shade structure/roof to the sides but that is likely out of the budget.

I agree that FBS name recognition may increase the value of a degree at sac state slightly, but you know what would do it even more? Elevating their academics. Sac is a decent school but is consistently ranked in bottom 3rd among CSUs (I was surprised how high all the So Cal CSUs were ranked). I know they will likely never surpass schools like cal poly, SDSU, SJSU, but sac should be in the 2nd tier at least. That is what dr wood should focus on. Elevating academics and making sac not a commuter school.

agree

Dr wood. “The cal expo is needed for space. As you can see we are packed out. “ while talking in front of the visitor side that is half covered in tarps and the portion not covered is half empty. The home side of the stadium does have a decent turnout today.
He also now changed this wording to “being FBS next year”to “playing a FBS schedule next year”.
Dr. Wood just rubs me the wrong way. He does not act professionally which a school president/chancellor should and he does not represent the school well.

Grew up in east bay but currently work in woodland and live in Vacaville

He wore the cowboy hat the beginning of the game and took it off in middle of 2nd qr about the time they started to improve. Maybe the hat is bad luck.

Tough lost. At least our social media team has the courage to post the final score. Sac state or Dr Wood still hasn’t posted anything since their 4th quarter.

Finally. At least we won’t get shut out. I agree that the gnatu play earlier looked like pass interference by wash.

they are announcing our “new” stadium at Yolo County Fairgrounds. They can use the existing stands from the destruction derby! Lol.
.
My serious guess is probably a Football GM announcement?

he wants to strike while iron is hot and before his sponsors see that they are stuck in JV.

Well at least he is still on the team and will continue get paid for this year and will return next year to battle again for a spot. Seems like he made a good enough impression to keep around.
