It is an intentional design, the " Flow through" style as they are having a hard time producing little Montana born cubbies for the team.

Now they may have to condemn the condom.... #-o

I guess I didn't realize they were putting a small board up inside. Probably for track times and a clock for football?
What a great place to host the class C 6 and 8 man state championships when it's 10 below. it would be really easy to pull in enough portable bleachers for a crowd like that.

This is no laughing matter, I'm hearing that sabotage is suspected and that Bobcats may be involved. I was just sent some surveillance video that supports this.

Class C folk just walk/stand on the sidelines ... we don't need no stinking bleachers!

Where will the fans park their cars and pickups so they can honk the horns when their team has a nice play?

More specifically, when can the team start practicing inside?

I was thinking they would have to cut holes in the walls for the front end of the car or truck could poke thru while they sat in their car.

I think Media Day is Wednesday. Maybe they'll announce something then.

I have heard so many different dates from MSU on both the start of the indoor construction and the completion date of the indoor that I don't believe any predictions that they put out on that stuff anymore. Until there is an announcement of an actually grand opening ceremony, I just consider the indoor still under construction. The same goes for the new facilities plan announcement. I heard they were going to announce something on a new facilities plan in July, but tomorrow is that last day that can happen, sooooo......I'll wait until they actually put out the plan.

They don't technically need to open it before Gold Rush (for PR purposes) unless there's a wildfire smoke issue though, right? The sooner the better but I would think it wouldn't really make any difference at this point.


Eastwood, did not make it. Ball out! Recovered, by Montana State!! The Bobcats hold!!! The Bobcats hold!!!

I would think they maybe would like the indoor for some game prep practice or just the ability to have two separate artificial turf fields to practice on. I think they could do that in the indoor right now since it appears the field and track are complete and they are just waiting on minor stuff, like the field netting and possibly some scoreboards/timing boards. Yeah, the official grand opening can come at any time in the future.

There probably has to be some sort of official certificate of occupancy issued before it can be used as intended as any other building is subjected to I’m guessing.
