tmfr15 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I know everyone complains about the sound system. Add me to that list. Has anyone in the athletic department ever said why there isn't an improvement? It made no sense not to improve it when we were doing the North or East Stadium additions. Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 It's buried in the Stadium Expansion thread, but Accountability broke the news on this: Had the associate AD on sports nightly last night and did in fact state that now that the east stadium expansion is all but complete, they are beginning research on the new acoustics for an upgraded sound system. Said it's been in the works for a while, but with the dramatic change in structure, they really had no choice but to wait until it was completed. I think he said to expect an announcement following this season? In other news-there is a god. Quote Link to comment

Knapp. You shoud pin my quote to the top of the homepage, and then offer up a perma-ban to anyone who questions the sound system. Quote Link to comment
Huskerfan1985 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Hey, the sound system at Memorial Stadium really sucks. They should really get a new one. Why hasn't this been addressed already? 1 Quote Link to comment
River-runner Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 I don't think the Husker brand is something that needs fixed. The brand is fine, and when it is at its best (aka. spring game Jack Hoffman run, winning the ESPY), it is something that really is amazing. The in-game experience can be spiced up for sure. We definitely need something between third and fourth quarters to get the stadium and the team hyped up to finish the game. The brand has not attracted a good recruiting class for how many years now? It gets changed and brought up to the future or it can stay in the past with the trophies gathering dust. Better figure out a new way to attract top tier kids to Lincoln, it has not been working.

skersfan Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 History and tradition mean very little to todays kids. If it did, Oregon, Stanford, Northwestern, Louisville, Texas Tech, Baylor wouldn't be getting the kids they do. They would want that great tradition. As much as I hate to admit it. Nebraska needs to change, to acquire the kids. Oregon does it with flash, a quick paced offense. Louisville somewhat the same. Our recruiting seems to be heavy in the late year, when the weather, and the beauty of Lincoln are not at their prime. Bring kids in early in the football season. Make that time frame the priority time, might help. Maybe we need to change some things. Of all the major schools that you think of when thinking blue blood, we seem to have fallen the farthest. Get the kids/students more involved. If we need to have a black our or white out, then the staff and the AD need to support it. Excitement with youth travels very quickly. I am an old geezer, have followed the traditions and said no to everything. But this ship needs turning, and it has to be what the kids want, what they want to be part of. Quote Link to comment
