Odds of getting a Jumbo Tron with Dooley as AD
Any news about future projects like this?
I would think that with Dooley taking over as AD, we'd have a shot at seeing some upgrades to athletic facilities.
It's ridiculous that we don't have the facilities to match up with some of the High Schools in Louisiana.:(

High schools in Louisiana having a Jumbotron while the state ranks in the 40s in education.... now theres the problem.......
Re: Odds of getting a Jumbo Tron with Dooley as AD
If we don't get a real nice one I'd rather not get one. ....And I want one BAD.
I'm not talking a mega-tron like you see at Texas or A&M. But I want something that would be better than what most non-bcs schools have. If it isn't BCS level I am fine with that.

Agree.
I don't need a massive video screen that breaks the bank and stands out like an eye-sore. But dang. Let's at least keep up with the bottom 3rd of College Football.
It's just a minor aggrivation for me. Winning cures all ills and a good season in 08 will drag my attention away from such things, but this is the off-season.
Re: Odds of getting a Jumbo Tron with Dooley as AD
No high school has a real jumbo tron where replays can be shown. Some have a message board where pictures and messages can be posted but even the mighty WM doesn't have a replay board. Some high schools may play in college stadiums with jumbotrons but i don't know who they would be. Does NWST. have a jumbo?
Re: Odds of getting a Jumbo Tron with Dooley as AD
We will have jumbo next season. It was promised to us after we donated 100K to university this weekend. That was a concern/need we wanted! M&W TRANSFER- MOVER FOR LATECH

I am probably wrong, but I could swear I saw replays on the WM ...tron.

Most of the time they are very delayed replays depending on the production crew and what they can pull off. Dawgpix can fill in the blanks. Binoculars are a big help in reading the ads and seeing the screen of the WM "tron".

First of all, THANKS FOR PONYING UP $100K!!! As was asked, was this for 08 or 09 season? We would really have to do some high stepping to get it for the 08 season!!

First of all...MANY THANKS for the donation. That's HUGE!
Secondly, who is "we"???
With a donation that large, all Louisiana Tech supporters should know --and need to know-- who the donor --or donors-- are.

The University of WM DOES have replays . . . almost every play. Their video board, however, is not jumbo, as Maddawg has pointed out. You have to be within 50 yards to have any real satisfaction, cuz not all pix on it are zoomed in very tight.

More importantly "who" told "us"?
