YSU Beeghly facilities upgrade

I agree.  Behind as usual.  Where is the sense of urgency with this athletic department?   Volleyball season is just weeks away.

They had workers in there removing seats and starting all the other work immediately after Spring Commencement. It is evident there were delays on the vendor side that would have delayed the installation. It appears things are on track to begin installing so it will be exciting to watch the progress in the coming weeks.

AD was on tv this am talking about the upgrades. just got a lot of the seating a couple of weeks ago. Should have enough seating done in a couple of weeks for the VB season. Rest should be done in a month.

They going to play volleyball in the arena by the time the season starts?  Concerning.
