The only HS games played at Welcome that need more than 4,000 seats are playoff games. There is no way any DPS HS games even come close to that.

That said I don't see any reason to build a stadium to replace Welcome just for parking. Football already loses UD 800k a year and their is no reason to spend more money. (And whoever argues that without football UD would lose money by not having the 100 football players tuition that's a bunch of crap. UD would have no problem finding 100 normal students to take their place) If UD wants to buy something they need to try to buy that park.

What UD really needs to do is an audit of how many actual parking places they have versus how many passes are issued. It is obvious based on the number of unused spaces even at sold out games that those numbers don't match. Also the fact that Red Scare often offers free D-lot passes to encourage student attendance tells me that they do have extras.
