I actually agree with you. I don't know if we will be able to fill 70,000 right away
When we first started talking expansion, several of our fans wanted 70+. Given our current average attendance, I thought that was the dumbest thing I had ever heard. 10,000 empty seats doesn't look good on TV or to recruits.

You have to take in for account the amount of visiting fans, which could range from anywhere between 2-7k. I think 64-65k would be a good starting place for us

When VHS was just a 50,000 seat stadium Ole Miss was averaging lower than 50k a game before expansion. After expansion we started averaging 57,000. If you build it, they will come.
