Montana State is aware of the noise factor at Kyle Field. The coaching staff has spent a considerable amount of time working on hand signals and "other means of silent communication." Other means of silent communication that does not include the use of hands? Like the honey bee's waggle dance? Too bad this is not televised. However they communicate, their first-year head coach Rob Ash is confident of their ability to "call the entire game on offense and defense with silent communication." His confidence is rooted in his previous experiences including a game at "Northern Iowa in the dome" which was "an extremely noisy venue" and "it was extremely difficult for communication there". His team relied on hand signals and the honey bee's waggle dance and "did a terrific job". Coach Ash expects "it will be the same for our team down at Kyle Field."Northern Iowa. Are you kidding me? Mr. Ash needs a lesson in scale. The UNI-Dome (where Norther Iowa plays, pictured above) has a capacity of 16,000 and is a venue for "community events such as recreational and craft shows." Kyle Field holds up to 87,555. That is is almost 5.5 (5.4721875) times the size of the UNI-Dome.
