I've not heard anything. But that's not unusual. Nobody even ran the project by me before it started.

No idea but as I have posted before. The fact that we have gotten few details and zero renderings of what it will look like is extremely odd.

We don't need details or renderings really. It doesn't matter if the video board is larger than the field itself and wraps around the stadium over the upper decks, it's still going to be 80% covered with ads.

Yup, but it would still be nice to see what it could look like

I would expect nothing less from LSU.

If we can find a way to frick it up, we will.

Just saw a video from the recruiting event in TS. North endzone board is still an empty shell

Was in the stadium today. Literally just beams and some insulation. Didn’t see any wiring or anything of that nature. They better be busting arse these next 2 months

I don’t think it’s really changing that much. I think they are just making the screen a little bigger and upgrade the lights within it. I think if the showed a “rendering” of the new scoreboard it would look extremely similar to what it had looked like.

Working with PVC pipes is tricky.

If you really think we are going to have contractor issues for a scoreboard you’re ignorant. LSU will run those fricks off and move to another

They have yet to figure out how to run a ticker of scores on the video ribbon under the upper decks, but they have perfected the art of having it blind your arse with a 1 million candle watt, 250 yard long wrap around Canes ad

The south endzone video boards look to be done a little bigger

Looks like they did away with the static ads.
