The reason is simple--the baseball scoreboard was funded because the Tudor conversion was somewhat oversubscribed so there was money left over. There was enough money to do it if the baseball scoreboard is basically to the Tudor basketball scoreboard.
Only partially correct. The RBI Club funded-- and continues to fund at a rate of $50,000/yr-- 50% of the cost of the Reckling scoreboard.
Yes, but the guts of it had to be in Tudor because it was funded as part of the Tudor deal.
1. The Saturday baseball game is still scheduled for 4:00p, Throwing Shade is now 0-2 with his "reliable sources".
2. The scoreboard problem has already been fixed. There are separate transformers for each Board.
Good news on 2. I had not heard.

Well I already posted a picture of the OE change to the new font. And the game is still pushed back. Care to explain why since you are all knowing?

You're full of it. The Saturday game has NOT been pushed back, and I heard that directly from Tanner and Joe Karlgaard last evening at the WBB game.

Well that's great Walt, did you hear Moss is out with forearm discomfort? And that Canterino, Kravetz, Parthasarathy will be our starters? Or were you too busy with the top brass to stop by the locker room and talk to players?

Heard a funny thing last night Walter, the generators still aren’t able to handle both games at once. That’s why the game is at 4 instead of a usual 1pm Saturday game. Idk if this information is exclusive for the big donors or what. On another note...I really under estimated RI. They could very well be Omaha bound this year.

Staggering the games so that fans can see both seems like common sense.

Bull, again. The game was originally scheduled at 4:00pm to allow many of us to attend the women's basketball game beforehand. This has happened numerous times in past years. And many of us have asked the Athletic Department to accomodate such scheduling. Why do you insist on making things up?
