TIGUE UPDATE?

El jefe esta Scott Farmer. El no tiene pantolones de nino grande.

The little wigs from Martin Hall are reading RP. You wanna be that little college with the little budget and the little facilities? Put your little boy pants on and step it up!!!!

already announced that the cost is above the original budget. Everyone is busting it to get the cost issues resolved before diving in head first. I do not know, and neither did this individual, if there's a problem with funding with respect to the original planned project.

You let your buddy know that if they fire farmer.. Ragin Pagin will pay for the overrun.

What I heard over the weekend (and although I will not reveal my source... they are directly connected)... is that engineering is actually not complete. And Lemoine... as most contractors have a habit of doing... has already announced that the cost is above the original budget. Everyone is busting it to get the cost issues resolved before diving in head first. I do not know, and neither did this individual, if there's a problem with funding with respect to the original planned project.

This sounds credible... I have read through all the doomsday threads.. Can someone point me to a credible source that says some of the funding has been pulled? Ive seen nothing but innuendo and attacks on the administration but cannot find where someone credible said $xxx was being pulled... Simple question

I always said that if the finish project looks like the billboard they had at the Tigue showing interior and exterior, I will be completely surprised.

Perhaps a FOI about the sources of funding. Pretty sure the funding shouldn't be mostly from UL funds.

I'd be okay with that, but that's not how it was sold.

I'm not saying there is or isn't a problem with funding (I personally do not know). The person I talked to over the weekend knows exactly what I stated... but didn't indicate they knew anything about the funding being jacked up. That doesn't mean it isn't.

I believe some things will come to light in a short time.

Whatever does jacked up mean?

The parts about the engineering issues that J1M would also square-up with SF's email:

"No financing has fallen through. All pledges for the baseball project are up to date. For various reasons, we are about a week behind."

Guess those would be the various reasons he as referring to. Of course, others have reported that they heard finances are a reason for the delay......so we will just have to wait and see.

So not trying to be a jerk but..

"didn't indicate they knew anything about the funding being jacked up. That doesn't mean it isn't"

That is the problem I am having scanning this whole RP outpouring... No one has indicated a problem with funding BUT that does not mean there isn't?????

Are we just in the offseason doldrums and looking for a cat to chase or has there been a report of a problem????
