I hope they enjoy them as much as I did. The one thing I will miss from WR is the video boards. Also nice to see where Drew Long is.

OK, we know that they are reducing capacity but please don't tell me that there is no longer space for video board as well.

The Video will be hanging over midcourt.....

You can see it clearly in the final design review document. It will be a 4-sided video so all can see it.

I'm sure the new setup will be good. I did like the "end zone" boards though. It was nice to have different places in the arena to look for replays or stats. It looks like they're going to incorporate it all in the new center scoreboard. I assume they'll use the ribbon board on the facade of the balcony for game information as well.

Here is Drew's current bio on the ACU Athletics site. Didn't realize that he had spent so many years on staff at University of Colorado and Air Force. So many of our former players seem to wind up in coaching and sports administration.
