CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Fundraising efforts to start a football program at Charlotte are off to a fast start. The school had reserved more than 1,500 personal seat licenses at $1,000 a pop through the close of business on Monday. Chancellor Philip Dubois said last week that 5,000 seat licenses would need to be sold in six months to help pay for a $45 million stadium. Dubois has recommended starting a football team by 2013. The board of trustees will vote on the issue in November. Even if all 5,000 seat licenses are sold, the school would still need to find major corporate sponsors and larger private donations to have enough money to start a program.
