Scoreboard

[mountainbear]

Agreed......I think the entire word should be capitalized!
It's foolish to live in the past..... I used to have a full head of hair...... Times change.
I'm not suggesting that anyone thinks our previous accomplishments alone should bring our current opponents to look at us in awe.
I was simply suggesting that many (if not all) recruits are unaware some of our traditions.... The positive ones, not our crappy performances of late.
I wonder how many kids come here just because of a scholarship offer. I wonder if any of them come to be part of building a program. I wonder if we will ever refer to our program as one with a"tradition of excellence".
I don't mean to get all Pollyanna, but it's got to get better.

Every successful program from college to the pros celebrates past success. Look at the Broncos and the Ring of Fame.

Thanks. This pic got me thinking, is our track ever used? I don't ever remember seeing people on it when I was in school?

That's nice looking (though not overly large). The BH video board looks like someone hung a projector screen up:

I agree. I am hoping it looks a lot bigger in person.

 

[Blofeld]

Yeah from these pictures it's kind if hard to tell what's going on...

Sometimes bigger is not always better. If you have been to a Portland State basketball game in the Scott Center you would have seen a monster video screen that they must have gotten from some NFL stadium that was getting rid of their old stuff from the 80's. It is actually very distracting to watch a game there with that monster blurry screen. I would much rather see a smaller crisp vivid screen than a big blurry one.

Thanks for the visuals!
It doesn't seem oddly sized from the pictures. It seems like it fits the "feel" of the stadium....I guess we'll have to see it in action at a game.
It does seem like a classy touch.

Here is a much better visual with live video of an American Flag on the board

I drove by it earlier. Looks great ! To finish it, all it needs is some high scores from the home team !!

 

[uncbears]

I just found out about the new boards. Awesome!!! Next year lets get some lights for night games.

Had a chance to see the new video board up close yesterday. The pictures do not do it justice. It will be a very nice addition to the game day experience!
