The trend nationally is to lower capacity and increase amenities
boxes and club seats produce more revenue. When Butler renovated Hinkle capacity dropped as well.
Other than Clemson, all the places you list with more seats have larger local populations than Blacksburg.
I do think they should consider reusing old narrow seats in student section to possibly increase capacity for students as student population is going to be growing significantly with sands vision. Of course, many of today's students would rather stay home watch on tv or just are not into being sports fans. So demand for student tickets is a moving target.
