These new scoreboards show tenths of seconds because this clock is a multi-use device. It counts down for football season and it counts up for track meets. They unofficially time events during track meets so the non-competitors get an idea of the times in the races. If the tenths number was an extra spot on the scoreboard then I could see that they could cover it up but normally when the clock goes under 1 minute all the numbers shift one spot to the left and tenths are displayed. If this could be turned off I think that many would be but I don't think that it can be turned off.
