The part where they look like partitioned areas for each player is the actual locker for each player. Does each one allow for laying down? I do not know.


If that is what you are referring to?

I just don’t see how they fit anything? Do they not put their pads in the lockers anymore?

It's not a very good detail of what that area will look like. It could just be wide and not as tall as we are used to seeing.

I was looking at those assuming they’re the lockers, but how do you fit anything those things?

Looking at the blueprints, it looks like the locker and seats are about 4 feet wide. The structure on the side is a wardrobe to hang up their street clothes.

Well at least some of that large buyout and contract helped pay for the facility.

On another sheet, it states," Future lockers and locker layout is shown for reference only. Owner will procure and install in a separate contract".
So they may change their minds 50 times about what style of locker to put in there before it's done.

Lies, all lies.

Remember when JHS was going to brick up the outside. And all we got was that gray box in one corner.

I’ll believe it when I see it.

I do.

By the way. I believe that is only the locker room for the practice fields and why it is loaded with entertainment and food because that his where they will spend most of their time.

The inside of this thing is very nice. The outside I don't like, but I guess they wanted to match other buildings on campus. Bama and UT did the same with theirs (kinda generic brick on outside).

Anyway, it's about time. Auburn and Florida are two big schools behind in the arms race. Florida is building their football facility right now and it will be complete in a year or so.
