Sorry for creating a new thread and if this is already been asked... But is the new football building going to have a locker room in it?

Yep! A locker room, and much more, my friend.

The video from a few weeks ago showed great progress. Anyone who visits the site, please keep uploading current pics so we can see how things are progressing (externally).

Have they ever show what the interior of the building will look like?

Interesting how they didn't mention a locker room. Seems like they would have? 😂💁

Seems like they would have? 😂💁 I'm just guessing here, but they're probably only listing "amenities" whereas the home locker room is basically the primary function of a football field house. Think of it like writing a story on a new library. You might talk about the digital resources, meeting rooms, and stuff like that, but you're probably not going to mention that it will include bookshelves. Again, that's just a guess. They could've just forgotten to mention it.

(curious why no mention of unicorns or bourbon slides?) Yeah a while back I wanted to work an AI render of that, but suggesting the least hint of a unicorn sends DALL-E off on a very preteen girl-focused tangent that just doesn't work very well for a locker room.

Will other sports use the facility? The facility is suppose to have advanced sports treatment options like hydrotherapy tubs and cool bath therapy.

I believe the other sports use the Coliseum for treatment, but I do remember seeing soccer and volleyball players getting certain treatments at the now "old" fieldhouse back when I played. (They could have just been shadowing for their Sports Medicine degrees, concussions make you forget). The old fieldhouse was mainly for football, so I would assume the same would apply to the new fieldhouse.

Anyone know if the size of the building is same as Troy's? If it is, then the amenities will be the same except for the scoreboard. They have youtube video's of there facility for comparison.

It's hard to compare the two directly, just looking at the footprints. JSU's appears to be larger, but troy state's is a lot more ornate. Also, while our FOC completely replaced (and greatly expanded) our old field house, troy state's building was essentially a new construction that connected to the existing Davis Field House, which sits northwest of the stadium. (Nothing got demolished to build the new building.) Both buildings stretch the width of the end zone, but whereas JSU's FOC is basically a large, fat rectangle, troy state's building is a narrower rectangle with the old Davis Field House acting as a "wing" on the northwest corner. If you compare square footage, they're probably pretty close to each other, but that's just a very rough guess. (It's also important to note that both schools have some amenities spread around to other parts of the stadium and/or nearby buildings.)
