[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 965976, member: 2426"] I posted this last year about gameday at ND in 2021. Another thing at ND was the quality of the video replays. However, I can understand that difference, because ND was using the NBC feed for the replays instead of making them in house. I think the largest issue is the coordination. At ND, the video board showed the false start video immediately after a false start was called. There wasn't a delay. The band didn't jump in front of it. The PA guy didn't talk over it. No music played over it. It was like everybody knew beforehand exactly what would happen in that situation, and then everybody acted in a coordinated fashion. The gameday at GT seems very disorganized. Sound system music plays on top of the band. The PA guy gets GT players' names wrong. They did TWO pick your song votes during the last game. It seems very random when the DJ guy on the field, or the band, or the video board are going to do things. The on the field recognitions seem to take forever. This is probably just a feeling on my part, but it seems like there are dead time, then there are times when they are trying to do a lot of stuff at the same time. If done well, the video board, the PA guy, the band, the on field recognitions, the dancers, etc. can all add to the experience instead of being an annoyance. GT does not do those things well. (Not saying the band is bad nor the dancers, just saying the overall experience isn't put together well.) [/QUOTE]
