The current pressbox likely will not get touched until after next season, they'll build around it, and then tear it down after next football season.

Come on people . . . dang.

Doing some research, it appears that, or it is most likely that there was a bond issuance/sale by K-State Athletics Inc. around the beginning of March for $55 million in revenue bonds.

Using their formula of construction contributions and suite sales, they had over $38 million committed to the project has of 2/1/12.

The suite situation is still classified as "oversubscribed".

A total of $54.7 million has been committed to the stadium project and the basketball training facility as of 2/1/12. 91% of the cost of the BTF was covered with private donations/commitments.

Preliminary construction work is supposed to start now, with full scale construction starting in the summer, with a projected completion date by the start of the football season in 2013.

I know, much of this has been covered, and as always with this stuff, things migh change.

yeah they've already started on the project. they have the area fenced off and already tore down the non permanent metal bleachers and have them currently sitting in the parking lot out by kimball almost like a person would put a couch on the curb with a free sign on it. just amazing that this thing is actually going to happen.

No crap. how is it possible to be behind schedule through a winter with no snow?

Hopefully we hire the same people that built the three-story wall that blew over onto Game Guy.

Change Orders, delay in sign offs from K-State Administration, etc.

So we can blame the BTF delays on Currie?
