Not too many colleges have a football/track complex like this. Side-by-side facilities for competition with an indoor practice facility for both in side-by-side-by-side mode. Then a rehab and strength facility for all sports adjacent to that. Outdoor football practice fields merely across the street.

The football team is especially well aligned here with the ability to dress and workout in one facility OR dress and practice either indoor or outdoor within about 100 steps away OR dress and play a game within about 10 steps away.


MSU - 16 team National Champions (most recent 2024); 57 individual National Champions (most recent 2023).

This photo just confuses me. Looks more like a swimming pool. Can part of the roof be raised?
There are at least three people in the photo. Can you find them?
It does not appear that large, then when I zoomed the picture it changed the perspective. The sides look to be at least 20’.

Yes when you zoom in and see the three people, that really gives a good perspective.

I'm sure it's already paying off in terms of recruiting, being able to show players the BAC, stadium, and IPF all within a few feet of each other has to be a big selling point. We've come a long way from the team practicing on the bumpy intramural fields and having to walk from the locker rooms in the Fieldhouse over to the stadium on game day.

Are we doing something with the walls? Just a bunch of plastic sheeting looks like....sheeeet
It looks like they may have masked them off to protect finished walls from track surface material.
Oh sure. That makes sense.

Drove by yesterday. There's an excavator out front. Im assuming doing some dirt work for sidewalks and landscaping.

I'll agree the pictures dont do it justice as far as the Cat logo size on the outside. I think it would be cool of it was bigger but it doesnt look too small as is.

Any word in a grand opening ceremony or anything?

I'm guessing since the finish deadline keeps slipping back, so does the grand opening ceremony. My guess would be sometime in July.

I can’t find any pictures of the um facility. I saw some artists renderings but not anything of the finished product. Can someone post any that are available.

It currently is deflated, which makes me wonder if it gets too hot to be inside it. No idea about the HVAC it may have. Maybe they cant afford to keep it up year round. Flat on the ground can't be good for it either. So glad MSU went hard shell, poor gris and their bubbles....
