Hate to break it to you but that is an NCAA violation.
On official and unofficial visits, schools are not permitted to "personalize" anything such as jerseys, lockers, hotel rooms, anything...they also aren't permitted to "simulate" anything which includes digital media shown on big screens or jumbotrons...
Basically...any use of the tech to customize for a recruits visit is illegal.
The only people to GAF that this is a one time thing are the people that wouldn't write UD a check let alone be on an advisory committee making suggestions on where to spend the money. When Connor Group drops 10 million to UD to make this project happen...they they get a say. UD obviously needed outside donors to see this project through. Anyone got an extra million to let them have?
Were you a recruited athlete? If you were and you say that a pregame intro sealed the deal....then I have beachfront property in Kentucky to sell.
13k in the stands and a raucous crowd seals the deal...not some video on the floor. UD can create the same atmosphere with the tech currently in place without spending another million plus.
