I ran into a few young project engineers at a local eatery in the Oil Center yesterday. For reasons Im sure you can understand, I wont say who or where. They chuckled when I asked if the Tigue would be ready for 2017. One gentleman caught himself and did say, "they were doing their darndest to make it happen." To a man, they did lay the blame on.... well..... you know.

I think we all know who to blame as to how we got to this point. And that shouldn't be swept under the rug. At the same time, there are some like me that are just as concerned about where we go from here. And maybe those young engineers at the eatery could explain why there has been such little workers presence at the Tigue, and why there is rarely more than 3 or 4 workers there. Probably would speed up if there were more. And again, this is a question based out of ignorance, because I truly have no idea about how it works.Quote:

Just to clarify, these were Lemoine guys. I believe earlier in the thread Cajun 90 stated that most work done now is underground. Make NO mistake, I want this done, because Robe is top notch and baseball is one of our jewels. Make NO mistake, I will not let anyone forget why this project is going down to the wire.Quote:

I would suspect that this area will be either concession stand or rest room. Keep in mind that since the camera is so close we are seeing only that area from home plate to first base. We are not seeing any activity that is happening along the third base line. I suspect that the structure will be steel or precast concrete. If precast concrete it will be like the new parking garages on campus. If that is the case then the structure will go up fairly quick once the foundation work is complete. The speed of erection will depend on how fast they can deliver the sections.Quote:
