If the billboard goes up, miles will find out about it. This would make news, newspapers, and especially press conferences.

I would agree, but honestly they don't have much to hurt Lamar with. Lamar wouldn't print it, Lamar wouldn't design it, Lamar is just selling space for a month.

I doubt Lamar wants to, but not like LSU will shun them or stop taking all the money that comes their way over one sign.

Guys,

I started the post and am serious about it.

However, I have no clue about graphic design or private fund-raising for a project like this. Also, I don't live in Baton Rouge.

I like the enthusiasm and hope something gets done.

I'm all in if someone with the above experience can spear-head it.

I agree that it would be surprising if Lamar would even consider it being that there is so much politics involved with calling someone out.

Unfortunately, everyone knows a single letter to the coach or AD will make no difference. However, like a union there is strength in numbers.

I simply want my voice heard. LSU has all the tools in place to dominate with the exception of an Offensive Coordinator that is left alone to do his job.

I hope this is stickied.

I really want to see this happen.

Don't really care for the "x" through the crystal ball though. LSU has a couple of those already.

I appreciate the poster who jumped in and put the image together though!

Very rough sketch of something along the lines of what lsutiger2010 initially posted. I don't work in the sign biz so feel free to add some ideas.

I still think it has too many characters to be truly effective. The less concise text, the better in my opinion.

Not really sure what to replace it with.

I know that the small print with the statistics would be almost impossible to read traveling down the road at 65 mph. That would be great on the "flyer" idea though.

I think the "genius" is in the simplicity. "Hire and Offensive Coordinator and Let Him Do His Job, Please!"

Everyone knows what the sign means and who it is directed to.

Thanks for the time spent putting the graphic together. It's folks like you on this board that has had me apart of it for (8) years now.

For the love of God please make this happen. The fans need to be heard. Is everyone leaning towards campus flyers now? How much and who's PayPal do we send to?

Figured you'd like that.

Alright folks, I'm off to do some real work. I'll tinker with it in the a.m. once some other ideas start rolling in. Happy New Year to all!

I'm behind your movement OG & lsutiger2010

This

If nothing else direct it to a web page that has just the stats.

Even though the billboard is big you have to remember that people will be driving by at a fast pace until BR traffic kicks in. You might want to make it as clear and concise as possible. That being said, why don't we put this where there is always traffic? Plenty of time for them to take pics of it and upload them.
