Yes, VT can add to Lane. However, there is no guarantee that the
leadership will give the green light on the expansion project particularly if the current demand for tickets doesn't support it. It is even possible that the current leadership may decide to use that money for other "more important" capital projects for whatever reason. Now if the fan base comes up with 100% of the capital to fund the project, then I don't see any reason for the current leadership not to give the green light to the expansion project.
One of the reasons I selected 80K as the benchmark for capacity is because I think the Super League will probably only have 16-20 teams in it. If it does have 40-50 teams, then it may not matter where VT ranks in capacity because the league may decide to balance out the representation for all the regions of the US. If it doesn't appear that VT will make the cut and the current ticket demand isn't there, then will the fan base still be motivated to raise the capital to fund the expansion project? It is even possible the fan base may not be motivated even if VT has a chance to make the cut because VT has to raise a lot of capital in a short period of time in order to keep its slot in the league.
