It is to bad they do not move them about 25 feet closer to the floor, but they do look to be about 10 x 20 or around that size. Next game someone attends is it possible you could take a video or at least a few pictures and place on here? Not sure if you can even upload video on this site unless from youtube, but would love to see what they were able to do.
I'm planning on being at the men's game on Thursday. I'll try to do some photos and video of them being used during the game and post them for you.

Here is the East Side. I am assuming it will be raised higher during the games.

I'd think it'd have to be. That high and the end stands would block the entire thing.

I am sure that was just for testing purposes.

Video boards do look very nice. From pictures, we might have a little washout problem to deal with under the bright lights. Something else to look for is how they might affect shooters at the free throw line. Could take some getting used to. We will get a taste tomorrow night from what I gather. Progress.

I think the lights directly near them shut off during a normal game don't they?

I am pretty sure they turn the balcony lights off, not sure about the main floor lights.
