Dome Upgrades

[Tony Almeida]

If they are short they need to go big and maybe cut out some of the other boards for now. If the big ones are in place there is no need for the corner boards at all. Sure they would be neat, but big main boards are more important IMO. The corners can be upgraded/added later. Those big boards are a 20+ year investment, so don't skimp!

Why hasn't this been the plan from the beginning? It seems too obvious and common sense not to even think it, let alone mention it...

Bigger is better. A few years from now they could easily add other boards but they won't be able to afford to upgrade a 70 footer to a 100 footer. But I love the fact they are thinking like a big time venue. The Bunnies get all hot and bothered by their new board. So why not go get 2 of their dream boards... plus new corners... and a few more to boot!

And take the old corner boards and put them outside. Put em on top of the over hang on the west side or one by the student entrance. Could give the west side a bigger time feel and entertain the students in ljne... or broadcast Dom and Jeff or announcements or scores. Good advertising too

I'd just throw those old ones away or see if any high schools want them. It's like keeping your old standard def big screen TV... What's the point really..

I can't wait to see the intro on this new system. Just imagine the possibilities. Countdown and tunnel walk on the main boards with some animations on the corner boards.

I have been...imagining...the replays for years! I guess I sit too far away or need better glasses.

I would like to see the corner boards show HD statistics such as fumbles, TFL, sacks,passes (total/completed) with more screen we can have more ststs.

I like that also. TOP etc. I hate when they put everything on one big board. Then its just one big mish-mash and I cant find what Iam looking for.. They could have 2 smaller ones on the east and west sides where you could just look up and get all the info you want. Having big score boards just to have a big score board just doesnt make sense to me. Oh wait---its great for recruiting---right?

I think for stats or outdoor use they are pretty decent. It's not like they are tube tv's. Not overly large either. Just shitty resolution which isn't important for stats or for outdoors. Could add to the tailgating experience

Work great were they are for stats, move them later for the upgrades but don't leave them alone for Johnson business to steel and try putting up in his father's garage bedroom were he still lives...

You are assuming two things here when you talk about outdoor use:

1. They are weatherproof
2. They are bright enough to be used in sunlight

I'm thinking neither is probably true.

For stats, yeah, I think they would be fine for that.
