Man this is ... kinda of a downer groundbreaking.

I mean great to get the facility but... sad context.
 

Hey, good news! Let's keep this bumped to the top of the board.

Go Gophers!!
 




Question on the timeline. Are they actually starting the project on Monday, taking advantage of the few weeks we have left before it gets too cold, then move to inside projects, or does this not really begin in earnest until the Spring?
 


Is the live stream working for others?
 




Anybody actually watching this? I don't get anything other than a generic BTN2GO video startup screen.

Restarted my connection and it is now on.

Seems like with today's construction technology the time of year is practically irrelevant. I often see projects starting in the fall. By the way, I read that note that Jerry Kill wished he could have been there today. I'm surprised he couldn't come for something like this.
 

Jerry & co. got 'er done. Kudos! Big day for the program, folks. Will pay dividends down the road, but perhaps already is having a positive effect on recruiting. MN will lead the nation in sports facilities soon, if it does not already. Never thought I'd see the day....
 

With todays technology the only aspect that is somewhat dependent on weather is digging. It's a lot cheaper to dig before the ground is frozen
 

Haven't been to campus in a while. Are they moving earth?
 

Goldie's hard at work getting the foundation ready.
