Didn't we have a groundbreaking for a dome stadium? How is that working out for Birmingham ?

Somebody go put a shovel in the ground so everyone will calm down.

I liked the barn-raising idea myself. Heck, we already paying for it ourselves, might as well build it ourselves too.

I've been involved in building projects as well. I know how long they take. Realize the steps involved. The point I am trying to make is that when the head coach says he wants something, people didn't see it done so they asked questions. They are not impatient, just curious as to the status and should not be belittled on a message board. A few months ago, we were told to believe nothing but what comes out of Coach Clark's mouth... now some of same people are saying... pay no attention, everything is ok.

Clark is in the loop and is fine with how it is progressing. Just ask him. No one is saying pay no attention. In fact pay attention. I can assure you Clark is involved in every step of this from my sources. He is right we need to get things rolling as soon as possible to meet his deadline of opening for fall 2017 and from everything I have seen we are on track to meet that deadline thus far. It's because of HCBC we are where we are today.

I don't see where anyone was belittled. If I came across that way I sincerely apologize. HCBC wants us all pulling in the same direction and wants us to continue to raise funds and be patient if the process.
