When is your entire stadium expected to be finished with its upgrades?

Thats a good size videoboard.

I just wish someone had some pictures of the stadium. :shock:

I just looked up ASU's video board - it's only 17' x 40' (680 sq ft). No idea on the total structure.

Any Rabbit fans here to chime in on SDSU's board? I know they have a big one and since Brookings is where Daktronics is headquartered, they might have have the biggest.

Man, that's great JMU. Although UNC has some great facility upgrades, we certainly need a new score board. It hasn't been upgraded since our D2 days.

I think JMU barely beats out SDSU's board. But that sure is pretty!

Just so we can all be put to shame and come crashing down to reality... Texas' Godzilla-tron.

ASU's AppVision is decent size, it's just a l-o-n-g way from the field.

There's certainly a lot going on with that scoreboard, and it looks great, but it appears that the actual video portion (the bright part between the 24 and 14) is roughly the same 16' x 20' that he have at the Tub.

For reference:
