This seems like such an odd fit for The Ted. The Starbucks was a bit of a stretch but it kind of works. I wonder if this will be going in the old campus tour office that was in the will call lobby.
Its not like there aren't empty storefronts in the Village. Does seem odd. Unless its somehow used as a recruiting tool. Like "Look, we have a great arena, practice facility, and you can get a hair cut right here after practice" or something like that?

I'm thinking recruiting tool. Barbershops/Barber's Chairs have become more commonplace in P5 locker rooms/arenas, so I think ODU's trying to stay ahead of the curve on this one. I also don't know if there's a barbershop on campus so this could be good for other students as well.

Just bc there are empty storefronts, doesn’t mean there are storefronts that fit this business. It’s likely this was the best fit for their budget. After all, if you force a bad fit into a lease, it won’t be long before you’re marketing that space again, losing money for both sides.
