    Triple the crews, go to 24 hour work day. I would think the under the roof work could be done that way. Used to love working that 3rd shift.

    There is no way in hell this university will ever get anything to do with athletics accomplished on time, ever.

    When will we stop getting our hopes up?

    If you thought this was going to be done on opening day, you haven't been here long.

    The sky is falling! It will be done. The building has a roof. Seats can be installed in the rain.

    At the start of this project they had at least 45-50 employees working. Now I see maybe a third of that. Brick layers, and cement form builders. I guess they have plumbers and electrical workers inside. Metal workers on the roof and siding. I know for a fact, because the boss man on the job said so, that working these sub-contractors was like herding cats......I got his meaning, that's a hard task. If they come close to finishing for Aug. 30 home game it will be like when they built the first baseball score board. The fans were in the stands and the teams where ready to throw the first pitch, They were putting up the netting in front of the score board. I have pictures of that. I am leaving for Branson for a week on the 27th, I hope to see some progress when I get back......

    Fill in the blank: "When conference realignment came, we _____ _____."

    How is this project different than every other project we've undertaken? In what way is it different?

    And we won't be a national seed in softball? Keep thinking negative and you'll never be happy.

    How is this project different? Because Lemoine is running the show and they are never late.

    I'm gonna make a crazy statement and say it's different in that we haven't even reached the deadline date.

    Again, who stated it won't be done on time?

    When we built the Teurlings Stadium they were installing plumbing fixtures the Wednesday before the Friday night game. All the subs had some people on site the night of the opening game. Good thing too, because there were some plumbing problems. The fire marshal did some pre inspections and we were all good to go on Friday night.

    I think they will be fine. Installing the seats should take no more than two weeks. The restrooms and concessions will be tight though. The bell tower is not a life safety item and can happen any time. If it's prefabricated then no problem. Lets see what it looks like in a month. I think you will be surprised.

    Just because there aren't plenty of people working doesn't mean lack of progress. If you have too many trades trying to work in the same place they just get in each others way.

    Blame El Nino...

    Weather is the only thing you can't control. The only thing the workers can do is maximize the dry forecasted days.

    When is any construction project in the state of Louisiana ever finished on time? Our weather is the most unpredictable in the country... possibly in the world.
