Lemoines Company is doing the construction and yes it's already started for a 2014 completion date. They also are going to start replacing the rest of the old dorm windows on the east side shortly.

The construction looks like it has already started. The whole area was fenced off a few weeks ago. The national champions banner on the back of the scoreboard in the south endzone is gone.

Someone "in the know" told me they were talking about replacing all of the dorm windows on the inside of the stadium walls that are visible while walking through the concourses in addition to the windows that were already replaced. New windows and new paint is what he heard. Tiger Stadium could look totally bad arse really soon

2 new Advertising screens in the corners
That was the biggest let-down with our current jumbo-tron. The 09 Spring game had me pumped as frick with the entire video board covered with "Tiger vision like nothing you've ever seen before coming next fall". Only to show up for the Vandy game pissed that the whole board is basically advertisement, but still a ton better than the previous.

EST,

The scoreboard cover in South Endzone was ripped by Isaac, they never bothered replacing it since it was going to be taken down in a year.

So true. The new HD screens will just be a form of advertisement.

so with 2 new video boards, that means even more ad space and shittier viewing from the NE seats correct. SWEET

Went to Auburn a few years ago and they had the same jumbotron we had. Very few advertisements and pretty much the whole screen showed the game the whole time. The updated stats were kept on the screen as well. Our jumbrotron is disappointing compared to theirs.

LSU sells out to corporate people left and right.
