Could a nice brick facade not have been used on the new scoreboard?


Aug 17, 2022, 5:24 PM

It would match the the brick on the wall around the stadium as well as brick on nearby buildings.

It’s typical Clemson that we are spending more on the new football scoreboard than we did on the entire renovation project for Littlejohn Coliseum.

In the case of football, more investment led to better results.

There aren't two.

My goodness Mrs Brownell, your husband is just not getting it done, and it's nobody's or nothings fault but his. How many years will you keep spouting these tired and silly excuses? Honestly, I'm thinking you only got one season left.

It is typical Clemson that football makes more money in one game than basketball makes in three years.

Did they consider tin foil ? In the 60s my brother had an apartment that had shag carpet on 2 walls and tin foil on the other 2. I was a little kid and couldn’t figure it out.

No, there is a statewide shortage of bricks due to the coots hoarding them for home game demonstrations of their culture.
