Boy, getting old is hard. I remember when you went a place with bleachers and a field just watch a football game. But then, all we had were Mattel rocks and sticks to play with as kids...
That would actually be 4 times as large as the current boardMan these people on here complaining that we are going from 54' wide to over 108' wide... come on man. That's awesome TCU. One would assume that the height grew proportionally as well, so that means this bad boy that's coming is MORE THAN DOUBLE our previous screen and with the latest technology.
Go Frogs to that!
I don’t see how this should be laid at his feet. They thought it would get done and it didn’t happen. I doubt the construction company told them it would take until 2020 and then JD just lied about it. There are people working at all hours on this thing. Hell, I was In the stadium before 6am earlier this week and they were working. The weather didn’t cooperate. There probably wasn’t a great contingency plan. Ship happens.Been a tough start for Donati in the AD chair.

And, just as a different counterpoint, he did raise the money to build it, kept Schlossnagle and Dixon and something like 18 of 21 sports were ranked at some point last season. A national champion rifle team and a track individual champion. Deep runs for golf and tennis, plus baseball in the postseason again. And for god’s sake the CHEEZ-IT bowl. It was glorious.Been a tough start for Donati in the AD chair.

Nah, he cleared it up. I took it one way he meant it another.jake102, bless his heart, has always been a debbie downer
Looks like a great add to the improvements. Hopefully we'll have a better sound system. Seemed deafening with the one he had recently down on that end.Man these people on here complaining that we are going from 54' wide to over 108' wide... come on man. That's awesome TCU.

That's what I was just thinking: "All those seats given up and people moved around... Oops!"I am interested in how they handle the people that gave up seats to get in the club. I don’t think just giving them east side sunburn and heat stroke seats will satisfy anyone too much.

Not even ADJD can make Deep Purple run for golf — I heard he has his own self purple golf cart a la Van Wilder.Deep runs for golf and tennis, plus baseball in the postseason again.
