South scoreboard

[Jimn]

Has anyone heard what the plans are for the south scoreboard? Last time I heard Rhoades speak, he expressed intererst in keeping it.

Its staying, at least until whatever point the south endzone gets bowled.

Let's fast forward 2 years and the south endzone is bowled. Is there a video board there? Is it THIS board or a new one?

Personally I'd like to see a stats ribbon board and/or a scores ticker running across the bowl.

I would like to see it used for game stats that stay on all the time. I hate the way they are put on a scroll on the side boards. I like to see how many first downs , yards rushing and passing for each team.

I'm a big fan of this idea. It would be great to have a spot in the stadium to get a ton of stats.

I thought it was going to be moved to the new softball/soccer fields.

My preference is to renovate existing board. My seats are on the south east side of the stadium. I would like to have the old scoreboard on that end. especially when it comes to replays. Even if we bowl in the south I can't see a upper deck for several years.

I was thinking I heard the same thing....I just can't find any back-up.

The need for a new video display and sound system has been discussed in recent years because the current system, purchased in 2002, is outdated. The current board will be used in some capacity (such as game statistics and other in-game messages) in its present location for the foreseeable future.

Common sense sez it stays put until there is a reason to move it.

I remember reading that too but thankfully that idea got scratched.

Yes I remember also hearing it would be moved to another facility at ISU. But I could see them keeping it around an extra year or two until they bowl in the endzone.
