This has been rumored for the last couple years, now it's finally coming to fruition!
State-of-the-art video scoreboards will be installed at both Roos Field and Reese Court, a university official told The Spokesman-Review late Thursday night.
“It took a lot of perseverence and a lot of teamwork,” said Mike Westfall, vice president for university advancement and executive director of the EWU Foundation, the nonprofit corporation which will take the leading role in managing the project.
“It is certainly a long time coming,” said Athletic Director Bill Chaves. “There’s an expectation that fans have when they go to games, and this will add to the experience for our current fan base, and hopefully new fans, to what I think is a tremendous product as it is. This just enhances the product.”
The football scoreboard is expected to be completed well before the Eagles’ home opener on Sept. 29 against Montana, and will be “very proportionate to the size of Roos Field,” Chaves said.
“I’ve been in stadiums where you wish it was a little bigger,” Chaves said. “But we’re not going to have that issue at all.”

Per a "VERY reliable source," board will be the same size as WSU's, but higher resolution.
Also,
-It will have a built in speaker system with a MONSTER speaker on top.
-There will be 3 HD cameras strategically hard wired in to get best angles.
-It will be installed inside the track thus closer to the fans in the stands.

You don't seem to understand. You enjoy BL, SE6.93 doesn't. For you it would be a joyous occasion, for him it would be misery. I like it when he is miserable. He doesn't talk as much.
