Champions Plaza announced

[Dawgpix]

Finally. A salute to some of Tech's notables other than Leon (he got his own statue) and Lambright (he got his own building.)

Thanks to A.L. Williams's nephew, Chris Richardson, for the major donation for the north end statue salute to Terry, Willie, Fred, Karl, Kim and Spoon.

BUT (you know i'd have one) . . . the visitors bleachers pictured behind the plaza in the artist's conception by the architect . . . really? AI couldn't improve your artwork any better and make the overall project more forward looking? ;-)

Thanks to A.L. Williams's nephew, Chris Richardson, for the major donation for the north end statue salute to Terry, Willie, Fred, Karl, Kim and Spoon. OK. Aillet and Lambright statues are must and need to be amongst the other.

Wood said the project would begin during the offseason with the addition of a Daktronics 10-millimeter LED ribbon board along the facade of the Davison Athletics Complex (DAC) in the south end of Joe Aillet Stadium. Installed and operational by the start of the 2022 football season, it will serve as a secondary scoreboard while increasing revenue and branding opportunities throughout the game.

Nice. Long overdue.

It's crazy we don't get things fixed. It's like we buy new and once it's goes to crap we just hang on to it until we one day upgrade it.

I would rather listen to Nancy Bergeron freestyle rap than those woofers, it's uncomfortably embarrassing.

That's kinda by design. There's alot of speciality equipment required for these Jumbotron and sound systems and they tend to discontinue producing replacement parts for them once a newer tech is introduced (which happens rather quickly). Ends up being cheaper to replace the whole thing than do the many needed smaller replacements and fixes.

It’s too bad that all of Tech’s professional hall of famers weren’t included… that’s so Tech to be incomplete in what they do.
