That one is as wide as four or five sections. BYU's sits over one section. I would guess about 1/4 the surface area.Originally posted by kccougar View PostWhat are the dimensions of that? The stands in that endzone are pretty small so maybe my scale is off, but it doesn't look that much bigger than BYU's new screens. BYU's would probably look more impressive if they were that close to the field."The first thing I learned upon becoming a head coach after fifteen years as an assistant was the enormous difference between making a suggestion and making a decision."

I'm disappointed, as well. Lame. They should have waited another season or two and saved money to do it right.

Yeah, with as small as the stands are on that end I thought it might be smaller. I looked up BYU's. They will be 51x36. I don't care if they are as big as Texas so I don't mind. All I care about is that they are a huge upgrade from what was there before.Originally posted by Jarid in Cedar View PostThat one is as wide as four or five sections. BYU's sits over one section.

It would be big, big money to put a godzillatron up that high in the endzone. Earthquake loading along the Wasatch puts huge lateral load demand on the foundations that Austin doesn't have to deal with.Originally posted by TripletDaddy View PostI'm disappointed, as well. Lame.

It doesn't have to be that big. Check out what SC did. I think that makes more sense given the overall height of the end zone stands, as you stated. A godzillatron would look kind of weird sitting atop such high end zones. SCs jumbo tron looks great for our stadium layout.Originally posted by kccougar View PostIt would be big, big money to put a godzillatron up that high in the endzone.

These are an upgrade but not really. I drove by and saw them today. This could have been done much better.Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

Yep. If they are going to upgrade, they should spend a little $$$ and really upgrade. This is like going from a '98 Corolla to a '04 Miata.Originally posted by TripletDaddy View PostIt doesn't have to be that big. Check out what SC did.

it is fairly visible and a more practical shape for a stadium of that size, particularly given how high up the end zone seats go. Godzillatron works for Texas because the endzone seating in that stadium is a joke. BYU missed the boat badly on this one.Originally posted by Coach McGuirk View PostUSC = 40ft tall x 150ft wide

On the plus side, it has the highest upper deck of any stadium!Originally posted by TripletDaddy View Postit is fairly visible and a more practical shape for a stadium of that size, particularly given how high up the end zone seats go.

BYU inside LBs coach Paul Tidwell said Zac Stout (mike) will be the 3rd ILB inserted into games, Manoa Pikula (buck) the fourth.
Hadn't heard much about Stout lately. Glad to see he's in the mix.So Russell...what do you love about music? To begin with, everything.
