IMHO, I feel like switching uniforms every other season is going to lead you down a path of "upping the ante" each year. They want to make them cooler and cooler each year, but ultimately they get more and more hideous.

Yeah, Oregon made the list twice...
I fail to see what is wrong with the Oregon uniforms :twisted: :-D

I could live with that Maryland one if they used their helmet that is just black

How much does the new scoreboard cost? Where is the money coming from?

Professors salaries! ;)

Actually, I believe Learfield Sports is paying for it, just like they did in the Stroh Senter, but am not positive.

That is correct. Learfield Sports is paying for it. That was one of the agreements when we re-upped with them about a year ago.

Very nice. Is there any way some drawing of what the new board will look like can be put up here or on BGSUFALCONS.COM? Also, what is going to happen to the other board. I've got some ideas if anyone is listening...

There has been discussion about what to do with the old board. At this point, it is going into storage as it is fairly cost prohibitive to install it in a different location and the funding just isn't there at this point for that.

Nice location inside of the north wall of Anderson Arena for the video board portion.

Or, perhaps, the ice arena...
