Up next: SALUKI Week!

[UNI Fight]

Re: Up next: SALUKI Week!

at the press luncheon, they announced that it would be carried on direct TV channel 657 as well as Mediacom Connections 22. But he also said that those were "local clearances", so I don't know what that means for those outside the local area.

CFU will be carrying it on channel 15 (not mentioned at the luncheon, but CFU has been advertising it)

In my limited experience with Directv (I've had it for 5 months now) local would mean in state. In Des Moines they referred to local as Chicago, Kansas City, Minneapolis and St. Louis.

Re: Up next: SALUKI Week!

Actually only 1 "poster" and its one of the smaller ones in the new place

Seeings how we are being technical and you are throwing out "reading comprehension," I will be technical back. You have shown me two posters. One is bigger than the other. Either give me some more examples of other larger posters than the UNI one, or change your tune to "we have one poster bigger than the UNI one and it has the whole team on it." Let me guess, they have one of those Saluki posters in every corner? Does that count as one poster or 2? (seeings how there are really only two corners)

Why do you troll here, start a fight, and add nothing of importance?

[Landmark]

Re: Up next: SALUKI Week!

more evidence for you



no they don't have one in every corner, they have probably 8 the same size as the uni one showing SIU greats like Jim hart, Carl Mauck, Brandon Jacobs, Joel Sambursky, and terry Taylor.

as far as trolling i was simple correcting an error mad by the originator of this thread claiming we had giant posters of your team by pointing out we only have 1. sorry if that's trolling and starting a fight.

Re: Up next: SALUKI Week!

Looks like the bigger poster is a fan entrance and intended for the fans, and the smaller poster is the team entrance and intended for the team as motivation. Does the visiting team also enter the same way?

Re: Up next: SALUKI Week!

Well, there's two posters. You are right, I was wrong. Sorry for saying you were trolling, I know you always tend to troll around this time of year. I don't blame you, I have been trolling around Salukitalk. I just hope that jerk doesn't post the "what is a Saluki" thread again this year.

Also, you might want to take a class in composition or something. Do they not teach that at North Kentucky Community College?

Re: Up next: SALUKI Week!

No they don't enter through the same way. The visiting team enters from a different section of the stadium



They come onto the field along the side of section 1

Re: Up next: SALUKI Week!

no problem foty just like have accurate information out about my salukis, I am sure you feel the same way about your panthers. The posters things is because most of the people at siu have called them windscreens. I have more respect fr your program then the rest of the mvfc combined. I was just trying to make sure your fans have the most accurate info.


cat80, ya its all metal bleachers

I thought one of benefits of the new stadium was expansion possibilities. You CAN go higher with metal bleachers, but wouldn't concrete give a more stable base for expansion? Or am I thinking incorrectly the emphasis on expansion possibilities in the future?

no real possibility of expansion in the future. They left plenty of space around the stadium to expand. Look at the picture I posted, they have plenty of room to add another "ring" around the current structure. It would have a separate structure system

Re: Up next: SALUKI Week!

It looks like a nice facility, even if the way it's built does give a certain "super-sized high school" feel to it.

Re: Up next: SALUKI Week!

My boss from school oversaw the construction and I know they tried to balance the look, the functionality, and perks. Would it have been nice to have a brick enclosed place and cover up all the steel yes, but what would we have given up. It has the same Fieldturf as the New England Patriots, the Video board is awesome adds a lot more to pregame and the in-game experience. Besides if you have ever been to carbondale and been to our old place, you would agree that any place would be an improvement.

Re: Up next: SALUKI Week!

I find this poster very ironic considering our problems hanging on to the football throughout the first few games.
