Spending $100M on a facility gets a little crazy imo.
It ISN'T 100 million on a facility. It's spending 100 million on ALL the programs. $45 million at least is on the baseball stadium.... for a program that loses millions every year. There were four other programs mentioned also. It is basically 25 years of deferred maintenance caused by the slumlord mentality of the past AD.

It is obviously a lot of money, but it also less than football makes in a year.

While we are spending the dough how about we upgrade the number of assistants and quality comtrol personel budget. I have no issue spending a little more on my tix to give our boys the best opportunity. Lets level the damn playing field!

Cheap is expensive.

That looks like an empty dorm lounge with leftover ping pong tables from the Union

UF used to be known for it's architectural school...WTF is happening with these designs for sports facilities? Looks like no design thought has been put into them, just how cheap can we do this?

Even the renderings look like they were drawn in the 80's.
I see pool tables set up in what looks like the lobby of a big bank. Marble floors?

How many of you Nancy's have ever been inside a football practice facility. Let alone Alabama's, Ohio State's or LSU's to know whether it's outdated in 5 years or not. I guess their's are outdated by now... Everything is outdated in 5 years it's the nature of our society if stuff stayed the same we'd go broke.
