The five story building to be built behind the West Stands will house a 12,000 sq ft weight facility, sports medicine treatment rooms, home football locker room, equipment room, offices for the entire athletics department, meeting & press rooms, and new restroom & concession facilities on the stadium concourse level.

Not really except for how quickly it jumped with plenty of time for more increase.

One more question, i was told in a meeting just 2 weeks ago, it was going to be 7 stories.
I'm concerned that we'll be locked in to no higher stands in front of the new field house.

i think the idea is if we ever expand our capacity by a large amount, they would make it a bowl, and make the east side taller than the west side is now. im pretty sure i heard that somewhere, but i could be way off, but it makes the most sense if they are going to put the athletic complex directly behind the stands.

I like the little app players in the drawings. It looks like he's constipated.

By the way, its going to look great when its done. I have been to KBS (2001), and its a great scene for football.

I like how it combines the pressbox and suites with the training complex. Very nice.

I think the original plan was for 12 skyboxes and now the number is up to 16. I was also told the addition of a totally separate press facility jumped the price.
