Scoreboard

[scotto_25]

This is all one big hilarious story....

Bricks dropped off
Bricks picked up
Cover up story on why "donated" bricks were picked up
New state of the art steel frame being placed
No timetable really to any of this
Scott Farmer is feverishly working to get this done
New Scoreboard isn't working

Thank God our Baseball team will be good

No thanks..heard both sides of THEIR stories along with a few others. Spoke to S.Farmer at the recruiting bash...We asked him a direct question regarding this. His answer was exactly what we were expecting.

In regard to bricks.... they found out that the current structure would not support real brick. They are going to be putting up a steel frame covered with faux brick panels. This is all being donated and thus paying jobs come first. It is suppose to be up by opening day...frames are done. Obviously time is running short so like others I'll believe it when I see it.

Padding is still in process with graphics and will not be ready for opening weekend. I didn't get a time frame on that.

So I guess that's the REAL reason why all those bricks were picked up and hauled off all those years ago.

How is the new scoreboard broken already? What the hell? Isn't there any kind of warranty? Couldn't we get them down here to fix it???

From what I could see, they took some BP with out the netting up and dinged it a few times with the long ball.

One small square wasnt working then halfway through the HR Derby, a big panel (maybe 1/6 of screen) stopped working too. Then they turned it off and rebooted it but they never put it back up.

This is what it looked like at the beginning

Whose butt gets chewed for not making sure a net is up?

Somebody I work with told me over the summer it was struck by lightning during a tournament that was held at the tigue. Not sure if this has anything to do with it. He was there watching his son when it happened.

When UL refurbished the old football scoreboard everyone "now" knows it was money down the drain. The bright spot then, was the company who sold the software and did the refurb would be at UL in two days if there was a problem. Once the refurb warranty was up the board was done, couldn't afford the regularly priced maintenance.

Point being, whoever sold UL a "NEW" scoreboard should provide no less service than the old scoreboard received.
