I can confirm the plan was to do 1 Texas sized video board

They weren’t going to have that size on both ends so that rumor isn’t true. But it is true that they had the funding and intention to do a massive Texas sized video board that was close to 33 yards in size on one of the ends, with a more conservative size on the other end.

This is what Utah did at RES, and it’s done wonders for the sound there.

I honestly think video boards are overrated, anyway. Just a platform for ads.

so much in sports is overrated, but it needs to be big and shiny for recruits

I think they are lots of fun. Great for crowd shot closeups during timeouts.

Come to RES sometime and bask in the glow of the giant video board, it’ll be fun

That stadium is tiny. Seats like 45,000, right? I'd rather see Tennessee.
