S.B Ballard has loads of experience at this kind of thing. I understand the anxiety some have as they seem to be behind the schedule per the computer generated video. I have some too, but I’m sure they will bring this baby in on time. They have a lot riding on this, it is their namesake stadium after all.

Yep we should be more concerned how that butt ugly endzone and that god awful scoreboard are gonna look when finished than the schedule. They have been at this construction thing for a while and they know how to make up for lost time etc.

I thought we were getting a new scoreboard and turf this year, as that money was set aside separately and not part of the build out costs. Did that change?

My bad yes we are getting a new board and turf which will not be coming from the 65 MM allotted for the refurb. One thing i am not sure is where they are gonna put the new scoreboard but that endzone is going to be an absolute eyesore until its gone.

The scoreboard isn't getting replaced until we do the NEZ renovation. The new board will be placed behind the new NEZ.
