I know it is a bit weird, but my big takeaway from Connor's article is that I want to drive my truck onto the Hilton floor! :explode:

Almost positive their will be smaller displays in the "middle" of the new boards so that players, coaches, and VIP sitting low can have their own views

Along those lines can't wait for people to ***** about the "Hollywood" seats that are most likely coming this winter.

Will the new videoboard affect the A+ lighting at Hilton?

Looks like Hilton may have some new seating arrangement as well. TJ has already asked me to grab one of these seats so I can give him helpful advice during the game.

It's also gonna make it easier for us to listen in on Kansas State's huddle.

The specs were posted on a thread somewhere on here. If I recall correctly the new board will be wider and not quite as vertical as the previous one.
using this logic, i think the Mizzou one would be about the one they go with.

New one better have a camera pointing down to center court for the Amazing Sladek.

Go to the "JTS Improvements - Want More" thread, back around 10/1/23.
Here are the specs Shadow posted back in late September:

Jack Trice
current: 36 x 79
proposed: 36 x 158
Hilton
current: 18 x 15 (includes top, middle, and bottom displays)
proposed: 15.5 x 22, plus underside angled displays and corner strips
*PLUS lower corner displays to replace the fixed-digit boards
