AuburnNTexas 7,128 Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 I am one of the people who thinks college football is spending to much money doing things like this, but since other teams are doing it you have to do it to compete. So if you are going to do it do it right. I think they have hit a homerun on this that will help Auburn in recruiting players, keeping players, and just competing with other schools. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong it does look sorta boring from the outside but what would you recommend it look like from outside. Honest question bama's football facility looks like crapola from the outside. to me it looks like every school administration building built in the 70's. this rendering cleans it up mightily 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they could expand it slightly to appeal to all sports it could possibly help recruiting across the board. I have no idea. Just thinking out loud.

No football already does enough for other sports.

Seems like this is an arms race and it really matters to recruits. To me it looks amazing. It's not even close to Oregon. It's very conservative. Outside looks terrible in my opinion.

Getting us a FOF allows us to get the sports that are relegated to the ancient BE Colliseum now into the Athletic Complex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steeleagle 2,945 Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 I don't like the outside look either. I guess it's too late to complain to the AD.... It fits Auburn's conservative style for campus buildings I guess.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
