I have a friend who works in the dept., tell me they were trying to find a way to get 3D cameras to the bill so they could broadcast it in 3D. Problem is- our space is limited and old and we most likely don't have enough room for them..

In order for ESPN to broadcast a game in 3D they require a whole new set of employees to run it. Approx 100 some extra people.

Also said, in order to get the "sky cam" up, they were probably going to have to rent cranes to connect it. Our stadium isn't what we call..."up to par" in the cutting edge dept.

Maybe it will capture a member of the Husker coaching staff flipping the bird at the refs like the Titans DC got caught doing on camera Sunday.

How long ago did they start filming games in 3D?  This year, maybe last?  So every stadium not built within the last two years would not be up to your buddy's definition of par?  Tell your buddy I think he's right at par for my definition of dumbass.

That was my personal quote btw not his.

I love BSFS as much as anyone, but let's be honest it's not the most jaw dropping, enormous stadium in the world or even big 12 for that matter.

Why do you think our dept is pushing for the 50 million dollar renovation? So we can try and stay ahead and make sure our stadium is where it needs to be. But thanks for the personal attack, even though I was just passing on some (what I thought to be) interesting info.

Stop being a rough ridin' dumbass, jtksu.

He was talking about the sky cam.  It's a little difficult to operate a cable suspended camera apparatus when you don't have anything on the opposite side of the stadium to mount a rough ridin' cable to.  Most BCS stadiums don't have this problem.  We currently do.

Like I've always said . . . our previous lazy ass athletic directors never fully took advantage of the fact that it is going to be a lot cheaper (relatively speaking) to build something really nice on the East side of the football stadium because of the stadium's design.   So for that reason jtksu, you can thank them for BSFS not being a great place to set up a skycam.

So rather than getting all pissed off at somebody telling you about REALITY . . .  implore our current AD to fully implement his vision for the West Side so that you won't have to yell at people on here for telling you how our stadium sucks for Skycam implementation.

I guess our forefathers should have had the vision to build facilities that would hold an additional crew of 100 people that were not necessary during the last renovations.   And you're rough ridin' kidding yourselves if you think all BCS schools have renovations at a much more significant rate than BSFS has had.  1993, 1998, 2002, 2006, and whenever the new round gets done.  That's pretty goddam frequent.

Please stop being a rough ridin' dumbass.

The reason we have to bring in cranes for the rough ridin' sky cam is because we have a high school press box on the West side of the stadium.  When you don't invest in modernizing your facilities for 20 years on that side of the field, this is the challenge you are faced when dealing with today's technology demands.

Thankfully, replacing the high school stadium press box is a major agenda item for the new regime that understands the need, unlike the past three idiot shows we had in the athletic department.

I'll be happy to keep explaining this to your dumbass if need be.
