Banner going up
I dropped by the Athletics building before lunch to pick up my parking pass, and decided to drive by the Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium on my way back to work. I saw them putting up a banner on the back of the big screen...

I'm not sure about putting it up. That backing has torn and fallen off many times. That may simply be what's left of it.

Well, that's distressing. Perhaps they should spend a little more and get something quality to go there. You don't see billboards along 240 falling apart like that (unless someone isn't paying for it any more).

Seems kind of odd that they would put up an entire middle section and a tiny section of the corner.

I thought I caught them in the middle of installing it, but I guess I was wrong...

I'm sure they'll get over there and thumbtack it back up before the season starts.

I wonder what would happen if we put the banner up? What the heck could they do to us? Tell us to take it down. 03-nutkick

Wait Til the NCAA disbands then hang it. Or we could just hang it now. What are they going to do, split off from us and form the P5A?

All we need is an asterisk on it, with tiny legalese at the bottom saying it was voided...

We should just make one and put it up. They can't stop us if it's on private property, or if we bought a billboard. Can they?

They can stop it if the school did it my threatening sanctions. If you did it on your own (or it was totally fan-funded), I don't think they could do anything to punish the school.

The NCAA is like the mafia though... if they want to punish you, they'll find a way.

That is what's left of the banner that was there. I don't know why they don't do something permanent.
