Dang , has anyone seen the frame of the press box " i guess that explains why they need an elvavator!! " you can see it driving behind db ..binocular time for coaches ...

I was hoping that was the frame for a set of stairs on the back side. I'm sure this will turn out better than it looks now but 4 million $ is a lot to spend to add only 800 seats.

I was told it would add 1500 seats.800 is a big cut from that.Those covered seats they are talking about will be good for women and small kids.

Kingsport Times News said this week that there would be 1100 new seats but 300 would be lost in the lower deck due to the handrail installations. Capacity goes from 3900 to 4700 on home side. The same story also said that the student section had been removed so I don't know where they will sit now. May not have all the facts but that was what was reported.

 I've also heard that the upgrades will be much better then what the original plans had called for.There are not many high school stadiums with an upper deck,so I guess this is pretty exciting for the area as a whole,even if you can't stand DB.Now just figure out the visitors seating at J Fred and we will all be happy.

We need a new scoreboard ... i have been hearing for 2 years we are getting one like science hill..

?? The crackle and popping thru the scoreboard speeks sux...

Oh we're getting one. Pal Barger paid for it. At a tune of 380,000.00

I think it measures look like 38 wide and 75 tall. Or something like that. Its going to be awesome.

The sun was a concern of mine by putting it back behind where the old scoreboard is,but this article kind of alludes that the sun will not be a problem .I can't wait to see how it will all look with the press box a mile high and that giant scoreboard.

    • Ole Benny boy lol. I forgot about Harder. He was tough as crap. He graduated in ‘09. I went to the OR/Maryville game that year (great game, btw) and he collided with Jacob West (I think was his name) and you could hear it clearly at the top of the visitor bleachers. Man, it was a stick. He could lay some wood son. All those guys were tough, Elliott included.
    • They do have good community support for sure and did when I coached under Z for 4 years. (I was on that staff that turned them around a little from winning 1 game a year to actually being competitive).  Great Kids and Great Community over there.  They have done some good things with the facilities from when i coached too. 
    • I personally will not mind that one bit.  It seems like a really strange fit to me from the git go. 
    • Hey, I am a big fan of LC even before my friend SC got that job.  Every time I have been down there for a game, their fans have showed up and stayed positive cheering on the boys regardless of the score.  I think they have great support and great potential.  I'm coming down for some home games this year for sure.  I'm pulling for LC. 
    • They didn't erect one of Zeller when he took them to the Quarter Finals in 2011 getting beat by a TD by Powell and Dy'Shawn mobley or in 2012 when they went 9-3 and finished 2nd in the conference behind Maryville. (That conference was stacked too with teams like Maryville, Catholic, West, Farragut, and Bearden)
