Auburn to hold public tours of new football facility (247sports.com)

AUBURN, Alabama — Auburn will hold public tours over the next two weeks for fans to see the program's new football facility, a team spokesperson told reporters Monday afternoon.

There will two separate open houses for the public, both from 4-6 p.m. CST, this Friday and next Friday — before both of Auburn's final two home games. An official release with more logistics about the tours will be sent out by Auburn later in the week.

Then-interim athletic director Rich McGlynn said the two weeks ago the plan is for the team to move into the Woltosz Football Performance Center after the conclusion of the regular season in December.

The facility looks awesome from the graphics released.  How do you guys think it compares to Clemson, Oregon and aTm?

This . Holy hell . No disrespect, but my last name is goofy. If I donated 10 million I would advise against naming it after me. Just name it the Barn and embrace it

Seriously. How narcissistic can you get? Unless you’re naming in honor of a family member I guess. We all know it’s a giant tax break lol
 

Just call it Auburn arena or the Auburn Football Complex or name it after Pat Dye or Pat Sullivan.

Are you DA's complaining about our donors? If it makes you so mad, make a few million and give it to our program.  Naming it after the major donor promotes giving.

Yeah I don’t care. The names are stupid. Dude, it’s a university. The taxpayers are the biggest donors. And for the athletics side it’s ESPN and CBS.

Much better than Buttsmear (or whatever it is) at Thuga.

You think the tax payers are the largest donors for the football complex?

Can you pronounce it?? No . Nether can I. Nobody is complaining about the donors, the name is challenging to say and that’s an understatement. That’s reality

Why is everyone arguing over what it is named because I can promise you this, the players don’t care.  Recruits don’t care.

 No one cares what its named….its about what it represents and what it will do for the program.

Because you can't make people 100% happy. Yeah,  apparently it is named after some folks who did the heavy lifting with pay. Probably shouldn’t be ridiculing their last name.

It's an internet forum. This is what we talk about. It's a dumb name. Don't care who or how rich the donors are lol Regardless, I'm excited for the facility.

Funny how people who don’t give a dime love to spend their time on forums ridiculing those that did.

Who says I don't give? lmao If I had millions to give away it would definitely not go to a massive public university whose athletic program receives hundreds of millions over the years due to TV revenue.

I could be homeless and still ridicule the dumb name of the football facility that was built 5 years too late. Welcome to the internet.
