FACILITIES


From the whimsical mind of Heather Dinich

Quote :

"Image is everything -- especially to a 17-year-old recruit who is easily swayed by the glitz and glam of trophy cases, sprawling coaches’ offices, first-class weight rooms and modern locker rooms. Today ESPN.com is ranking the best facilities in each conference, including stadiums, locker rooms, practice facilities, etc. We’re talking total package here, guys, not just a ranking of the stadiums. Of course, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but some schools have clearly poured more money into their programs than others: 1. NC State: The four-floor, 103,254-square foot Murphy Center is the largest operations facility in the country dedicated to football, according to the university. It’s home to the Pack’s sports medicine, equipment, academics, and strength and conditioning. 2. Florida State: The Noles have a 15,000-square foot training facility, a lifting area of 14,000 square feet, and a locker room that recently underwent renovations that cost more than $2 million. And of course, Doak S. Campbell Stadium has been home to one of college football’s most storied programs. 3. Clemson: Memorial Stadium (81,500) is one of the most impressive venues in college football, and the strength training facility is two floors and includes the latest equipment, nine flat-screen TVs and a new sound system. 4. North Carolina: In 2011, Carolina opened the 150,000-square foot Loudermilk Center for Excellence and a premium seating section, the Blue Zone. The five-floor Kenan Football Center was completed in 1997 and includes the UNC locker room, weight room, training room, equipment room, players' lounge, computer labs and study areas, 100-plus seat auditorium, coaches' offices, theater and Hall of Honor. 5. Virginia: The Hoos can take pride in their $86 million renovation of the Carl Smith Center. They’ve also recently installed FieldTurf on two practice fields adjacent to the McCue Center, which features an 8,000-square foot weight facility and a 7,000-square foot training clinic. The program has plans for a 78,000-square foot indoor practice facility. 6. Georgia Tech: The four-story, $7 million Arthur B. Edge, Jr., Intercollegiate Athletics Center opened in 1982, and contains more than 65,000 square feet of space and houses Tech's entire athletics program, including administrative offices, the Hearn Academic Center, locker rooms, training room, dining hall, equipment room, plus a number of other facilities. The Jackets also recently added a new indoor practice facility. 7. Virginia Tech: Lane Stadium is one of the best in the ACC and the 40,000-square foot Merryman Center is a $10.6 million multi-purpose facility. There are nine position meeting rooms, a 130-seat auditorium, and a 22 x 30-foot office for Frank Beamer with a view of the stadium. 8. Boston College: In March 2005, the Eagles moved into the $27 million, 72,000-square foot Yawkey Athletics Center. It includes new football offices, meeting and breakout rooms, locker rooms, sports medicine, strength and conditioning, an equipment room, theater-style classrooms and player lounges. 9. Wake Forest: Deacon Tower, which opened in 2008, was a $48 million addition that included a state-of-the-art media center. It was part of a multi-phase program that has included FieldTurf, renovations of the concessions and weight room on the East Side of the stadium, and new concessions areas on the West Side. 10. Duke: In August of 2002, Duke football moved into the Yoh Football Center, a $22 million, 70,000-square foot facility located in the northeast corner of Wallace Wade Stadium. It has a speed and agility room, locker room, coaches offices, weight room, sports medicine center, position group meeting rooms, a players’ lounge and a memorabilia floor. 11. Miami: The Canes use the Greentree Practice Fields, which were good enough for five national title teams, and work out in an 11,500-square foot weight room that was completed in 2001 and is more than double the size of the previous room. The Hecht Athletic Center got an $8 million facelift in 2001 that included a players’ lounge, an outdoor terrace overlooking the practice field, an expansion to the football equipment room; and a posh office suite for the head coach. 12. Maryland: In 2009, Maryland completed a $50.8 million stadium expansion project that included luxury suites, 440 new mezzanine-level seats, a presidential suite for 200 guests, new work areas for the media, a new team shop and a state-of-the-art scoreboard. In 2004, the Gossett Football Team House was remodeled."

6/14/2012 2:15:30 PM

I know some of you stupid fucks wont believe me, but I would be posting this no matter who the team was because its funny:

Quote :

"3. Tennessee: Not only has Neyland Stadium gotten a multi-million dollar facelift over the past few years, but the Vols are set to move into a new $45 million football facility this fall. The Vols already had an indoor practice facility, and their new digs will include everything from a mixed martial arts fighting cage, to a restaurant, to cell phone recharging stations in the players’ dressing cubicles in the locker room. "

I dont know what is funnier, the fact that there will be an MMA cage, or that cell phone recharging stations are supposed to be some cutting edge shit



oh, and here, they are wanting some more NC State people to chit chat with, knock yourself out: http://www.volnation.com/forum/tennessee-vols-football/162040-few-random-quotes-nc-state-message.html

Don't act like you're not more intrigued by the restaurant

6/14/2012 3:30:34 PM

it is odd that they called it a restaurant and not just a cafeteria... I guess that means its open to the public

6/14/2012 3:43:22 PM

They are just now getting electricity in Knoxville. So yes, it is advanced to them.

6/14/2012 4:48:00 PM

They serve as cell phone chargers and double as glory holes.

6/18/2012 7:06:52 PM

Glennon sounds really weird. I didnt understand a word before Annexation of Puerto Rico, and after that I could understand him but it still wasnt clear. I wonder if he has some weird short tongue syndrome or something. Sounds like his tongue is in its own way.

Alright, who's haawnngy. Razor Stinger Beer Trough... Rammmey.. teigg tile!

wow, I figured his draft stock was high, but pretty surprised at top 10

6/18/2012 8:07:58 PM

So I wonder if the team will only wear the red helmets this year. I admit to liking them, but I really like the white ones as the permanent helmets. I've been seeing the red ones be used in some advertisements lately, which makes me think they are going to use the red ones this year. I think I like the white ones because I like the clean simple look it presents like Penn State.

6/18/2012 9:16:58 PM

so you're saying white=psu? i see what you did there?

You don't like the "this is our state" campaign?

I predict the white helmets will be worn for all road games and possibly OOC home games, and all reds for conference home games

6/18/2012 11:42:22 PM

I love the all white

6/19/2012 12:10:23 AM

I like the color blocking. So, if we're red, then red helmets. If we're white, then white helmets. Though I definitely prefer the all red look.

I haven't looked, but what are we for the Tennessee game? Who's home?

6/19/2012 9:10:23 AM

The red helmets are the best thing that has ever happened to an NC State uniform in any sport....EVER.

Kiper talked about Amerson about a month ago and said he had him as his top DB (even over Honey Badger Mathieu dude) in his mock 2013 draft.
