New Baseball Scoreboard (in time for 2013 SBC Tournament)

When they build the new grandstand.

I think he's around 50, so not in his lifetime?

That's my understanding. They just put about $90K into the locker rooms (got a great discount from KK) and I think they did a little work in Tony's office, but unfortunately Tony's office and the current bathrooms will remain as is until the new grandstand is completed.

BTW, there was a group in the initial phase of looking to raise money for the scoreboard as it wasn't going to be part of the master plan, but with the donation(s) it was fast-tracked. Installation is due to start after the SoAL series.

Does anyone know if we will use Daktronics again? They have some nice displays and we have already bought their video boards in the past. I did some digging and found some examples of baseball displays they have done....

Any thoughts on these examples? I personally think the Georgia scoreboard is really nice quality, just not sure I like the setup of where the stats are displayed... seems a little confusing and not friendly to the eye.

I think I'd rather the video board that the St. Lucie Mets have pictured below where the board is solely used for video and statistical info while they still used a conventional scoreboard underneath it with the box style innings and R H ER boxes.

On a side note, the Daktronics website actually has a picture of one of the boards we bought on our Campus at the corner of Rex Street. http://www.daktronics.com/ProductsSe...s/default.aspx

New board will have similar setup as what we have now. 16:9 video screen on the left with a traditional scoreboard on the right.

How would this cost 375k?

Good, I can live with that. I wish we could get it installed sooner! Can't wait for that thing.

It is Daktronics, the purhcase order has been sent in.

If a PO has been sent in, is their a style number or product number to see what we are getting, or does this type of set up get built uniquely to specs sent in?

[CajunAlum10]

16:9 does seem pretty small for what you can get.

[CajunDreDog]

• How big is the video board?
• The board now is not 16:9 ratio, so something has to move.
• Is this a TOTALLY new scoreboard, or a refresh of the current one?

Just trying to get a feel for what is coming.
