New Football Facility Question

[jjinatl82]

When do they break ground. Thought it was this month but haven’t seen anything lately

The breaking ground date doesn't seem all that important to me.
Why do you ask?

University of Florida baseball team’s new stadium should be ready by June, about the time construction starts on the Gator football team’s training facility.

The $65 million stadium should be complete by the end of June, putting the wraps on one of the two major projects in Phase 3 of UF’s 10-year Master Plan for facility upgrades.

The other, of course, is the $85 million, standalone football facility — the James W. “Bill” Heavener Football Training Center. That project will get underway this summer once the baseball team has moved into its new home from McKethan Stadium, the site where the football facility will be built.

The completion time frame hasn't changed that I'm aware of, so no worries mates...

According to Gators.com they break ground in July. So as of right now they are on schedule, as it is not yet July. Which surprises me, I would have thought the social distancing requirements would have slowed things down.

I can guarantee to you that nothing is slowing down. Major project going on right now in my group which has not slipped it's deadline by a single day this year. This project will pretty much all but guarantee that UF slides from the #8 university in the country up into the top 5. We will also just happen to have the 5th fastest supercomputer on the planet and the fastest by far of any education facility on the planet as well. But you never heard that from me as it hasn't been officially announced.

For what it's worth, not a single person in my work team has "worked" a day from home yet.

You dogded the 'Why do you ask' question, instead opting to get snooty.

Sorry I bothered to give you the 'end of June start' information....

Ok.

Wasn't trying to offend.
