We need billboards. PC has em and Coastal has em and they look great.

[thepostman]

yeah, why don't we have billboards?

[Sly Fox]

They cost money that could be used elsewhere in a budget.

I'm not saying that marketing shouldn't be emphasized more, I'm just stating the facts.

[Realist]

Billboard advertising cost is minimal. It's one of the most cost efficient mediums you can use.

Why does a Winthrop fan have to be the voice of reason?

Line of the day

[bigsmooth]

we had billboards in the karcher era. i remember the one on wards rd. across from the toyota delaership.

yeah, a lot of people can see it, but how many people who might/will be interested will see them - other than some LU students or LU faculty/staff?

[LUconn]

We have billboards every season. Normally the one right next to taco bell at the very least. Maybe it's just not up yet.

That was part of the "Liberty Flames: Feel the heat!" campaign that most of us would rather forget.

Why do you have to be such a jerk? A lot of people would see it and possibly say, "Hey, that looks like it could be fun to go to" and in turn show up at a game.

[bigsmooth]

shuk, why dont you quit posting here since you have nothing good to say about LU athletics. you are obviously a hater, so maybe you should go start an LU hater board.

[LUconn]

I enjoy his posts because they're so retarded. One entire half of our stadium is filled with nonstudents. All 6000 must faculty or players parents.

[bigsmooth]

they are indeed retarded.

[jcmanson]

I can see both sides of the argument. They are neat to see, but I don't think it's a must have. For those that drive 460 east through Farmville, and into Petersburg, during basketball season there are always at least 1 if not 2 Longwood billboards. So annoying!

[SuperJon]

I don't think we need them in Lynchburg.

Four places:

460 between Roanoke and Lynchburg
460 between Lynchburg and Farmville
29 between Chatham and Lynchburg
29 between Lynchburg and Charlottesville

[LUconn]

460 between Lynchburg and Farmville
29 between Lynchburg and Charlottesville

I'll save you some money, up until Appomattox this is the same road.

[SuperJon]

You could do it together on that part, or wait a little bit and get the people from the separate roads that don't travel on the connected part.

You mean up until before Thomas Terrace.

And JCManson is right...Longwood does do billboards. Lets just make sure we start referring to ourselves as LU on them-it irks me greatly when Longwood does it.

[bigsmooth]

it is a good idea. especially between roanoke and lynchburg, and maybe even on I-81

[Libertine]

PC Selling its new DI Football Coach & Program

They're doing whatever it takes to take that program county-wide.

[Sly Fox]

I was waiting for that response, Lib. It took awhile but you didn't disappoint.

As for shuk, I've gotten no problem with his presence. Some exposure to a real university through our board will be good for him.

Stick around.

any one who has taken a marketing class will learn that billboards can be a complete failure because most of the people that see them will not be within the products target marks. If they don't reach the target market, then they are useless. I read on a marketing website for some college that most of their professors believe that billboards are only effective when it directs you to a business or when introducing a new product. The Liberty football team isn't a new product, unless you are going to market the Rocco era as a new product.

also, you would have to consider how many people would be turned off by the billboards because they would find them annoying, as someone else mentioned, and considering the intense hatred there is in Lynchburg for Liberty and anything Falwell, there will surely be a huge backlash for billboards.
