    article said something about doing a simple board on the back of one (?), the north one I'm assuming, for "arena" (basketball) configuration.

    no, that bit looks like a temporary board that would hang in the neighborhood of the North 30/40 yard line above the south seats when the south seating has been pushed forward for basketball

    They'll have to keep that in mind when they raise the roof to expand to 35K.

    That will probably work better than having to look straight up. For football, I think so long as they update the corner boards and maybe put down/distance/clock of some sort on the backside it will be OK. Not great, but OK. I think it's just the top few rows that are obstructed.

    I was playing around and was trying to figure out what these would look like. My best estimate for boards that are 30 by 100ft would look like this. Almost exactly the same size as the old digital displays currently at the ends of the field. I think it's going to look pretty sweet.

    Don't matter. FIVE-PEAT!

    They really should run ribbons along the top there on the sidelines. Really blow it out.

    Nice work. They actually have a picture in The Forum print edition of what this could possibly look like as well. Basically said the same thing as well. Same size as what is there now, just full video across the board. The picture had 2 ads on the left and right edges with video in the middle. Would look totally BA, especially with one in each end zone. Hoping they go with the 30x100. Hopefully the increase opportunity for ad revenue will entice them enough to go big.

    I am so sick of the Bison already. Win this, win that, blah, blah, blah. I'd really, really like to know how they do it. I swear they have to be the luckiest sob's on the planet. Just sick of this bs, just fed up.

    Please do the 30x100...I will beg anyone. Next, upgrade the sound system so thunderstruck actually has some base and sound the way it should...the intro is only like a couple minutes long (which is pathetic) that's including the countdown, so the silver hairs don't need to get all worked up...then the corners and end zones can hear the announcer as well...

    We MUST do this. If money is an obstacle, wait to upgrade the corners if we can only do the smaller ones. They will work ok for stats and stuff.
