From what I have heard, the renovations will be more focused on the lobby and the upstairs lounge and suites area.
This is a two phase project over the next couple of years, since there is not enough time to do everything at once.
The “Eli” is a multi use venue and can only be closed for a certain amount of time before things begin to ramp up next fall.

Apparently they are up 600 purchases. Tickets will be very scarce next season.

Will the renovations include more seating? Also, any chance a home game gets moved to AAA? A top 25 FAU vs a top 25 Memphis should be seen by more than 3,000 people

I would think the FLA Live Arena, home of the Florida Panthers in Sunrise would make more sense for this market if available.

I hope we do push to have a few of our games at the FLA live arena. It could help us expand out to the Fort Lauderdale/Miami Markets since FIU doesn't really have sports and a lot of people down there don't like UMiami

More games on the way with FAU hosting the 1st Field of 68 Tip-Off! They will face Liberty on Nov. 30 and Charleston on Dec. 2, as the trio will have matchups with one another until 2025!

How many home vs away games are we up to?

surprised no top 25 teams / big name programs so far.

Wondering if that's more on teams not wanting to play us than the other way around.

OR

Dusty knows we'll be ranked in top ten to start the year and you can't go backwards if you keep winning and did average to soft nonconference schedule. 

Probably a bit of both…
