So where is the athletics administration going? They were going to go in David's Place but now baseball is going there.

I thought they weren't going to level David's Place... Did I miss something?

David's Place is going to be remodeled as the baseball team's "clubhouse".

Athletics administration settled into the second floor of the new football tower, fell in love with it and wants to stay. Problem solved.

O really?

[jenkins]

thank goodness there moving the scoreboard..that was all i was worried about. I got used to that thing being there in a hurry

[Cider Jim]

And according to an article in the Lynchburg paper, the lights are moving, too.

Oh well for the great banquet room and classroom. Although I'm not really complaining.

Great news for baseball!

[PAmedic]

still trying to visualize how this is gonna work... someone needs to get a rendering and put it on here.

still can't see how we're gonna squeeze an APPROPRIATLY sized ballpark into that space, but I'm sure they figured it out... that's how LU roles.

still be great to see a 4 story parking deck in the pit. Man would that make life easier.

[PAmedic]

gave you sallys 20 min and no response so I did one myself. Guess it DOES fit. I stand corrected.

somebody has been working on their skills

[PAmedic]

yeah, I added some seating to balance it out. Plus I figured we'd need it.

slight problem of a major road going thru right field but I'll let the chancellor figure that one out

[logic]

Construction to begin in October? Anyone want to leak any renderings or artist drawings? Surely someone from athletics/Green must have them!

[PAmedic]

HMO Construction, LLC, probably has the contract. Ask him.

or HMO Contracting, Inc

or HMO Food/Tanning Services

or HMO Mass Transit Corp

or HMO Protective Services

or HMO Aviation

hard to keep them straight but I'm sure he's involved somehow

The amount of respect you have for me is humbling....Please add HMO Mobile & Social Media to it as well I'm getting the impression you are keeping my resume up to date like I'm doing for BJ

ANYWAYS...If I could have one wish come true for this stadium it would be that HOK would design it. HOK (now Populous) is the benchmark for all stadiums now....however they've exploded the last few years and their prices have as well. IMO one of the regrets with the Hillcats renovation is that a architect that is specifically for stadiums was not used...which resulted in a few mistakes that wouldnt have been made by people specifically in that industry.

[jbock13]

According to wikipedia, the new stadium will have executive suits?

I'm on my android so sorry I can't link it. But is this true?

[Hold My Own]

I'm sure it will. I couldnt imagine LU building a stadium and not putting them in. Its one of the best ways to get stability financially because it's consistent income.

[bigsmooth]

you forgot HMO Resume Services as well.

[Hold My Own]

I dont know how I could have forgotten that...this is the one area where I actually have someone that would give me a good referral

[PAmedic]

HMO Staffing Services

[bigsmooth]

Benjamin thanks you HMO...by the way, what was in the bag??

Just the announcement of a news stadium has already paid dividends as AD Barber revealed at halftime of the Lehigh game that we will be hosting the BSC tournament in 2013

Nice!

[Trottalot]

Have they started clearing the land or done anything for the new stadium site yet? I hope they don't wait for all that white stuff to get on the ground to start this project.

We still have a football game left you don't want to mess up parking or traffic.

[BJWilliams]

09's right. If we end up hosting a playoff game next weekend youre gonna need roads to be available for that and if we shut them down to start work on the stadium you are gonna look at a total meltdown on so many levels. Just like with the scoreboard in Vines, youre going to want the maximum uninterrupted time to begin work on the stadium.
