Another possibility is... Building a new locker room on the opposite side of the stadium. That would be near the entrance the team uses on gamedays for the Dawg Walk.

“That would make a lot of sense,” coach Mark Richt said Wednesday, when asked about the possibility of that location.

The recruiting lounge could then be put adjacent to the new locker room, either next to it or on top of it. Either way, Richt said he “absolutely” would want the two next to each other.

Go for it, why stop now? Our lockerroms are an absolute joke. Would there even be enough room for a nice, badass new one underneath the west stands though?

Would be badass if we did that & put a recruiting/parents lounge area above a new locker room similar to what UK is doing at Commonwealth...

That coudlnt' happen in the west stands though, at least not on the same level as UK. Going by that first pic, that is a full size section that probably has roughly 50 rows going up it. Our west side doesn't go as high as the rest of the lower bowl

so if we were to cut out half of that it would only leave like 5 rows above and below it. Not to mention giving up a few hundred seats, if that matters.

We could do like UT & cut the visitors seats down to 14 inches to make up for the lost seats...

the top of the WEZ is even with the top of the 100 section believe it or not, that little wing on 101 makes it look lower... There are less seats at the bottom of the WEZ tho....

The groundskeeping faculty is under the west stands student section. I guess they could build something behind there though. Or just have them move to the old lockerrooms

I could see them building a recruiting lounge above the current recruiting gate and spans that open space, with an opening on the top of the those WEZ sections, but those seats are not exactly central.
