As a former athlete that had **** for facilities I do not begrudge any improvements to the facilities for any sport, but damn, Football really rules the roost. The arms race is real.

I was able to do a couple zoom calls with other fans and Coach Rahne and he said they didn’t even have enough lockers for all the athletes on the team. So may as well improve them all while adding more.

Interesting. I was under the impression the problems were with the size and lockers in the stadium locker room (built for FCS size team) and that the LR Hill facility was OK.

I believe the issue exists at both locations. The locker rooms weren’t touched in the 2017 expansion at LR Hill. It was just the weight rooms, coaches offices and coaches lounge.
