Practice facility

[tristatecoog]

Due to the Gilispie shenanagins, I read a lot about UK's palace of a practice facility ($35 million) and A&M's facility that's under construction ($21 million I believe). How much is being spent on SMU's facility? Does anyone know how it compares with other schools like TCU or Tulsa?

FWIW, UH still uses its $25-$30 million multi-purpose athletic facility that was built in 1995.

I think the final cost on the Crum basketball practice facility came to ~$14mil. This number may or may not include the renovations to Moody, but I don't think it does. Our new engineering building cost ~$15mil and it seems to be roughly on a similar scale.

$14 million is about right and does include Moody renovations.........we can store our maintenance and janitorial equipment over at TCU`s..........

Thanks. $14MM is a very tidy sum. Nice commitment. Go Ponies!

TCU's shed is already full of lawn equipement. No room for our junk. They are having a great little yard sale over there in a couple of weeks. They would sell their pride but its already gone to the lowest bidder.
