A look around Kinnick and the new videoboards
Here are some quick videos of the new video/scoreboards at Kinnick Stadium.
The UI conducted a tour for the media Thursday.
The HD really does pop. The south board won't be full screen as much as you will want it to be, but, UI officials say, the gameday info (down and distance) has to remain visible when the game is in progress. Also, ads. Also, the 16:9 ratio is sketchy to show a lot of a football game.
Also, the Wall of Fame was going up. There's a pic of Calvin Jones' retired No. 62 going up on the press box at the bottom of this post.
We live in an HD world now and it's awesome.
What does everyone think of the #BurritoLift? This is one of the two videoboards in the north end zone at Kinnick Stadium. They were lit up for the media on Thursday.
