Something that Maryland football is currently building is a total immersion 4D experience for recruits.
A throne, much like Game of Thrones, is being built for recruits to sit on and have a perspective from the field, speakers under the chair and around them, vibrations, noise, 360 screen showing a crowd and stadium. Idea is to give them the concept of playing in a Big 10 environment. This has Kevin Planks hands all over this project.
Yes, I know they get their asses kicked. Yes, I know the stadium isn't packed outside of OSU, PSU, and Michigan. But... WVU recruits against them and the DC region. Recruits like this stuff. May be something similar'ish WVU will do down the road.
A tid bit that this board will like, UMD decision makers and staff wanted furniture and design accents like WVU is going to have with our facility upgrades.
