    Maine Black Bears 2026 Offseason: Missing Out on Mistlebacher

    Two parts to design that need to be done properly. The one everyone knows about is the bridge in its final configuration with live and dead (no pun intended) loads imposed. Then there's those pesky and sometimes quirky construction loads where the falsework has to support the green concrete...

    Maine Black Bears 2026 Offseason: Missing Out on Mistlebacher

    Woof...it was a composite beam design done by students at UMO. As I see it, could be one of four mistakes or a combination: 1) Poor design by someone 2) Poor quality control during manufacturing of the composite beams 3) Incorrect concrete placement procedure during the deck pour. 4) Lack of...

    Greed and Greed not known for safety. My guess is they cut corners and didn't put in all the required bracing for the beams supporting the deck placement. Sometimes you might get away with it, other times not.....like yesterday. Luckily no one killed. There would be no composite beams...

    UMaine 25-26: Marques My Word: Back to the Big Time

    I just love Bens attitude. He is a doer, a believer in himself and those around him to get things done, and done right. In some ways he reminds me of Walshy, never say die attitude.

    UMaine 25-26: Marques My Word: Back to the Big Time

    Seems very tough to turn down an offer from the Goofers if they want him bad enough. Only time will tell, but Bennie seems like an eastern guy, or I should say, doesnt fit the mold of western coaches. He was blue collar player in college and I think prefers to work with guys willing to blue...
