It will be next to the new baseball stadium.

ok. Wondering if they were still putting it there or not. Hard to remember how much room there is now with everything being change. Isn't/wasn't there a road going thru there?

[Kolzilla41]

There will no longer be a through road, just one that leads to the FOC parking lot.

hmmm. I don't recall being consulted on this...

thx for the info.

[PAmedic]

if I read this correctly: @libertyfootball, quoting JB, confirming work has started on the practice field(s)

Liberty Football ‏@LibertyFootball

AD MEETING: @LUADJeff states that 6 new facilities are currently underway, inc. 2nd football practice field & plans for new softball stadium

[bluedevilflame]

Are there plans for a indoor practice facility?

[01LUGrad]

Will there be a sweet sinkhole in this practice field like the other one? That was awesome.

Flames to build indoor practice facility at conclusion of 2015 season

[ALAFlamesFan]

Sounds like it's going to be a first class facility! With this, the new APC, and full COA we really have no valid excuse not to recruit and perform dramatically better in the next few years. There are more than a few power 5 schools that do not have the quality facilities we will have in 2017. Many in the group of 5 can only dream of facilities like these. Quite a commitment by our administration.

[Humble_Opinion]

This has been a part of the plan for a while now. I think originally it was going to be over by the tunnel.

Ah. So it begins tonight. Got it.

A win on national TV and indoor facility will make a huge impression on recruits. I just hope this is the beginning of something greater for the school in the near future .

In my opinion it's a waste, but sadly to get recruits it's something that just has to be done these days. It's all about the WOW factor.

better not go to happy valley then, there indoor bubble has two practice fields inside and then another outside they walk to. They don't use the grass field but barely the endzones up to about the 10 for the lineman then they go to Williams, I think Williams stays covered and this becomes new main practice spot

Yeah, it's really made an impression on all of those great UVA recruits.

I like the facility, I do. But let's not kid ourselves, it's not going to have this giant impact on recruiting. Each recruit has different desires and different personalities. Some are concerned with academics, some are concerned with championship potential, some are concerned about playing time, some are concerned about NFL potential, and some are concerned about facilities (that list could go on). This may be something that gets our foot in the door with a few recruits that would have ignored us otherwise. But this isn't a game changer - just an enhancer.

[LUGrad2000]

It is a game changer when it comes to NO lost practice time. During the season loosing any practice time can possibly make the difference between winning and loosing.

For a school like Liberty that could use every and any "extra" recruit that is possibly thinking about going elsewhere then it def is a game changer. If you know anything about football it takes just that "1" special talent that is here and not elsewhere.

I know PH will hate this but I still say an alternate uniform or make that RED helmet CHROME, could set the uniforms off just a tad bit

The facilities won't be the decision maker for a recruit; they just may earn us an extra campus visit or two. But that's about it.

The uniforms worked for Oregon 10 years ago because no one else was doing it. Now, every team except Alabama, Ohio State and USC have some form of alternate uniforms. It's no longer a recruiting advantage.

[BJWilliams]

Agree with sweat...if we want an extra advantage within ncaa rules, uniforms won't be it. You know how many schools have chrome red alternate helmets?

Does CSU have an indoor facility? You know, the current BSC Champs

[forbidden]

OK, CSU has the belt this year, but its not like they walked thru the BSC. The two games vs LU and Coastal were close games that they found a way to win. I am not looking at them as some all of a sudden offensive juggernaut. Our game was easily winnable, but we choked like some dogs. Doubt they win it next year with or wo Chadwell

[alabama24]

...they DID go undefeated.

Mayweather was undefeated also, didn't mean he walked thru every opponent he faced

Chuck South barely has an OUTDOOR facility. Buccaneer Field is the smallest in the Big South with only 4,000 seats.

Without all these swell facilities how did CSU go Undefeated in the Big South?
