Stadium will NOT be ready...

Again, that link and pic from Paramus is almost 2 years old. Don't know if those enormous banners even exist. If they do and we're using them, you'd think there would be something more recent about it.

Attention all you construction experts, engineering laureates, people with friends that work on it, crane operators, slow drive by geniuses, etc. There are a bunch of you that assured the readers here that there was absolutely NO WAY it would be ready.

Please come to the front. Explain now how a month away, this won't be ready.

I did not think it would be ready. That picture sure makes it seem like it will be though. We still dont know how many activities are left on the inside, finishes always take the longest.

Also, it is one thing to finish the structure, another thing entirely to receive your certificate of occupancy. If the fire marshal has any issues, he can make it so the building can not be open to the public. I doubt this would happen though considering the amount political pressure associated with this project.
 
Here's a couple minutes ago

Blake James just tweeted that it will be ready.

Listen ***** why would the school or dolphins put out new info on how they plan to address the issue of covering up lack of attendance, that feeds the negative aspect of Miami's lack of fan support. UM wants to talk about positive things in the transition to the Richt Era while playing in a newly renovated stadium. UM addressed the banner issue last year and then moved on, an as you have demonstrated the inability for original thoughts, you should follow your Beta instincts an move on also.

Go Canes
 
Daaaamnn, what is it with this Paramus guy?

Putting me on blast for questioning whether those banners were still in play and for him using 2-yr old links.

Old boy was mad, DBC mad.

Thought I saw somewhere that adidas had a red and black U somewhere, so maybe they will include the flags at some point? I like the idea of using them as a turrible towel type deal. JMO

Only red and black U I've seen was some pictures of helmet stickers the equipment team were messing around with
 
I love my boy, [MENTION=4597]Paranos[/MENTION] and the info and insight he brings, but he is like a powder keg. Good looking out, Paranos.

Can't lie, I was one of the engineering experts and I'm sure Ross had to slip some extra money into the foreman's pockets b/c they literally turned on the construction jets to get to this point. Annnnd, I will also admit that I wasn't feeling the stadium, however, this does look real good and a lot better than before....now I see why Richt was so adamant about defending playing in this stadium.

Just one thing, rather than tarp of that one section, I would love to see giant Miami banners hang from the rafters covering that area.

I really hope they don't have the orange and green *** backwards on the "U".

Someone said the same a while ago on Twitter and an assistant AD said the image wasn't made by the school, and the person who did it made it that way to avoid a trademark issue.

Think it was when we first signed with Adidas. Believe there was a picture on here that Snoop posted? Oh well! I hope camp is a pack of mad dogs and can't wait to watch the Canes kick *** on Sept 3rd from section 352! Go Canes!

I drove by on Google Maps and I swear, it'll never be ready in time.

If you are going to rely on a "drive by" using google maps, you need to look in the upper left corner to see the date stamp. Those views were done in 2015. NW 199th St was the most recent with July 2015. Carl Barger Blvd was recorded on 2/15/15.

Looks nicer than I could have imagined. I can see that place packed and rocking when we beat down FSU.
