People couldn't believe how much money the Church was spending for such a HUGE video board. Looking back, it makes me laugh now.

Everyone needs to hold judgement until the first replay is

cougarstolz

agreed

I sit in the south stands and it is a pain having to turn

kkf

Nicely done.

The old NEZ was such a joke. Why even waste money

BGRTHNUMEGO

8/22/12 1:59pm

Glad it found a new home on the soccer field.

Art Director

8/22/12 2:06pm

Yeah, and by the way, why did people ever use cassette tapes

SoCalCoug

8/22/12 2:07pm

That's just dumb

Fatalplacebo

8/22/12 5:59pm

Wasn't NEZ a big deal when it was put in? Right before

cougarick

8/22/12 2:11pm

Other way around

rggee

8/22/12 2:13pm

Apparently both were at the same time

cougarick

8/22/12 2:18pm

Right but the north one only did silly animations, no video

rggee

8/22/12 2:20pm

until 2008

rggee

8/22/12 2:21pm

I loved those silly videos...

swingcat

8/22/12 8:45pm

Yes, that is correct

Does anyone know how much of the screen will be taken

ballen

8/22/12 2:01pm

I asked this question the other day, didn't seem like anyone

rggee

8/22/12 2:03pm

Whatever it takes to get the rest to be 16:9 dimensions

Y Mountain

8/22/12 2:04pm

I'm happy with it for sure!

ballen

8/22/12 2:06pm

Bottom 5' of each will be used for score/clock stuff.

Phred84044

8/22/12 2:08pm

Thanks! And how tall is the entire screen?

ballen

8/22/12 2:09pm

Needs to be big enough to see, Not sure 5' is big enough...

rggee

8/22/12 2:10pm

Solution: Link

rggee

8/22/12 2:40pm

Why cant they use some of the ribbon for this instead

improv

8/22/12 2:41pm

I can't tell are the new ones the same size

Xamius

8/22/12 2:01pm

NEZ is slightly smaller.

Pete

8/22/12 2:05pm

Too small, not worth the money spent.

scall

8/22/12 2:04pm

Lol

workindev

8/22/12 2:04pm

Hardly a laughing matter. What a waste of tithing monies.

scall

8/22/12 2:05pm

Do you really think tithing is used for athletics?

KingDave

8/22/12 2:08pm

Indirectly it is. Every dime spent by athletics even if

scall

8/22/12 2:10pm

your logic is why united order didn't work

paulb

8/22/12 2:13pm

Personally I sign all my tithing checks and ask for them

CavemanCougar

8/22/12 2:17pm

Yes, because people that donate to athletics

kccougar

8/22/12 2:21pm

This is ridiculous. Here's what I want my tithing to go to:

Caboom

8/22/12 2:28pm

If tithing funds the football team

BradioHead

8/22/12 2:35pm

It goes to tithing. :)

The athletic department raises its own money.

CloseToIt

8/23/12 8:27am

Winner right here, closetoit is correct

Heinz57

8/23/12 10:18am

you mean NuSkin stock owner dividends

Cougar Geek

8/22/12 2:10pm

Which is used to pay tithing

Xamius

8/22/12 2:11pm

If it is a waste, why are you saying it is too small?

workindev

8/22/12 2:13pm

Cost benefit analysis.

scall

8/22/12 2:18pm

So, do you have the costs of larger boards to back up

workindev

8/22/12 2:33pm

I jus wonder where the score, time and down will be

BradioHead

8/22/12 2:06pm

I heard that they will give a stopwatch to everyone

ballen

8/22/12 2:09pm

The section at the bottom of the screen will be used

Hoosier Coug

8/22/12 2:21pm

It's like an iPhone; it's all screen.

Thanks for posting this. I think they look plenty big.

Why does NEZ have big speakers, but not SEZ?

Florwood

8/22/12 2:47pm

It would distort the sound...

Y Mountain

My seats are in the NEZ--should I bring ear plugs?

Florwood

I hope it's that great

Y Mountain

8/22/12 9:08pm

I would like to congratulate Scall for his trolling....

More than doubles the square footage

sgbyufan

8/22/12 4:48pm

More than doubles the square footage!

sgbyufan

8/22/12 4:49pm

So if you double it twice, does that make it 4x?

BW84

8/22/12 4:57pm

North X 4.5; South X 2+
