It's not like they show ANYTHING worth watching anyway. Our production on our video board has been HORRIBLE since Dooley invented the jumbotron.

That issue has nothing to do with the design of this project.
But it should be on the list of complaints for Dr. Wood.

Love how they incorporated a big ramp/Porte corchere so they can continue to park an ambulance right by the field.
Bush league.

The field level ambulance has never made any sense to me. Maybe be missed it, but I don’t see that anywhere else.

Seems pretty universal that athletic departments are creating physical space and programs for the academic advancement of their athletes. May pay off when we aren’t missing half our football team for games after fall quarter is done.
Re: @LATechSports Announces North Endzone Facility Plan
We've had an academic center in the bottom of the TAC for a while, but it's old and small. Plenty of other Universities have these bigger academic centers.

Those ambulances better stay under cover at the top of the ramp. The ramp should be used to cart injured players up to the ambulances if that ever is needed.

Don't have to worry about that this year.

We don't have people who can operate one video board effectively; how the hell they gonna operate two ?? lol
Re: @LATechSports Announces North Endzone Facility Plan
I attended a playoff game Friday night between Lovejoy and Burleson High School at Prosper High School's new Prosper ISD Football Stadium. Wow! It has the largest video board of any high school in the state of Texas. I swear I think it has a larger video board than most FBS colleges have in Texas.
https://youtu.be/_2kxM7p7GY4
BTW, Prosper is just a small country town of 22K residents north of Frisco that's squeezed between Celina and Frisco in Collin County. This is a $53 million stadium for a town that currently has ONE (1) Senior High school in the entire school District. I know there's nothing wrong with "planning ahead", but dang, the money these school districts are throwing at these high school football stadiums is insane. The new Stadiums in McKinney, Allen and now Prosper ISD represent a combined $173M in stadium construction costs, all within a 19-mile radius.

They are synched and show the same thing. If they don't, something is broken.
