  • New UNI-Dome Scoreboards?

    UNI is looking for Casino Gaming money to purchase a 100x26 scoreboard for the Dome.

    Price Tag- $2.2 Million

    Hopefully they approve the request. New boards are definitely needed. The current boards span the width of about the hash marks. 100 ft. would put them well past the numbers on the football field.

      Tangent: are we even looking for a hanging scoreboard for the McLeod Center? I don't remember if it's been discussed

        I think it is on the back burner as the scoreboards in the UNI dome are in far worse shape.

        Also I kind of think that in many people's eyes the UNI dome needs to continue to be fixed up before improvements are made to the McLeod as it is only 7 years old in November.

          Don't read some of the comments on that Courier article. I'm learning that most people commenting on Courier articles literally have nothing to do all day but to comment negatively on Courier articles.

          wack-a-doodles.

              I didn't see anything wrong with the comments. Some against, some for, you are going to have that with anything. It's true UNI has made lots of spending cuts and it's completely natural for people to question if this should be the highest priority.

                There are ten comments by nine different people. I don't think any of them devoted a great deal of time to the endeavor. How many times are you going to post here today?

                  Show me where I said the same person posted multiple times on the same article.

                  You missed the point of my post, but that's not surprising. Have a good day!

                        Let me know if I am correct in understanding her post. My understanding is that freaks like you try to bring down great ideas because of their own unhappy depressing lives. Correct?

                          Good news for UNI Athletics. I assume this means everything is moving forward on this then.

                            Great news! I wonder where they are going to find an additional $250,000. I surely hope they don't cut the sound system from the project.

                              I would imagine they'll make the difference up with the increased ad revenue the new boards will allow.
