New weight room construction

Submitted by Maizen on

The University's architecture, engineering, and construction website says the start date on construction is Spring 2017. It's already May, and I have yet to see any renderings of the project. Anyone have any details? I believe umbig11 mentioned awhile back this was part one of a two part renovation and they were still in the process of raising another $14 million dollars for additional renovations to Schembechler Hall and the hydrotherapy and training areas.

Wasn't there just a poll of recruits where facilities quality was like the last tiebreaker when deciding where to commit? So if it's happening slowly, it's not a problem as far as I'm concerned.

Not sure how long renovations like these take but it'd be nice if it were at least close to being done by the end of the year as it'd be a nice late recruiting push tool to show off to recruits
