Look I start this with some understanding that UConn athletics are bleeding $ and not in the greatest financial situation with limited conference TV revenue ... but we can dream anyway right. So since UConn has fixed the marconi (lol) or whatever tiles ... whenever I see that now beautiful white dome I see such a potential for a visual video screen.
I think of being at NBA games and seeing things like this:
guess who else has one:
When the lights go out... #TheSwamp comes alive. #OneNight #OneTeam #Gators

This seems to be a company that makes those effects:
Quince Imaging, Experts in Projection Mapping, LED Displays, & Broadcast Video for Live Events, Sports Teams, & Themed Entertainment.

Any idea how much these things go for and how realistic it would ever be for UConn to put one on a wish list. An incoming recruit seeing his image and maybe some action video up on the dome would sure set us apart in the competitive recruiting world. It sure would have an effect on me if I were an incoming opponent. Being state of the art like this and using students to learn the technology and building degrees off the skills needed to maintain, program and build the tech would also seem to be learning with actual real world implications (and ability to get jobs with the experience.) Would that be a way to attack this idea ... some type of $ into an educational field?
Anyone?
