Students to get a lot more football seats

Posted on November 7, 2007 by Colin O'Keefe

Jim O'Day is already trying to give students better basketball seats. Now he's doing the same for football. This comes from an article in yesterday's Kaimin.

The expansion will provide about 700 new student seats by relocating some season ticket holders to the new area.  The student section will grow into the section next to it, wrapping further around the south side of the stadium to bring the total number of student seats to 4,000.

“It moves over one more entire section,” UM Athletics Director Jim O’Day said.  “We wanted (students) to be down low, and that’s where they wanted to be.”

So the students, in a way, get more than a third of the new expansion. We should've gone with the 5,000 seat option.
