Its inside of the Vines Center.

Those look great. I love the image that's been brought to LU athletics in the last 5 years or so. I'd love to see the Vines Center updated with this type of image around the top ring so average fans benefit from the upgraded image seen here in the offices.

i would love to have that inspired by the vision sign on my wall. that is awesome!

[pointguard4christ]

I am simply drooling!

As for recruiting, this will help. As a basketball player you strive to play somewhere with great facilities that look great, if not awesome, and it looks like that is what they've accomplished here! All I can say is wow ....

These pictures are amazing. Now the tour that I got last year is already out dated. I need another one.

I'm sorry, if you are goign to pick four guys you have to put Bailey up there as one of them. Argue amongst yourselves about who would get the bump.

They spent all that money on renovations and took away about 50% of the treatment/rehab area for the athletes' medical care. That's a cryin' shame just so coaches can have a place to change.

[Sly Fox]

Leave it to Fumbles to throw a wet blanket on this.

[Fumblerooskies]

Don't get me wrong...it looks AWESOME. The small closet that is supposed to provide quality care for THREE SPORTS...especially when they're all going on at the same time...is a travesty.

[PAmedic]

something looks different about the thread name, too....

[PAmedic]

FR- you know it won't matter to anyone, until ACE goes down with a hammy and there's no room to treat him.

then, of course, it will be your fault.

good luck to ya

Fumble, Just wondering when all three teams...mbball, wbball, vball, are all going at the same time. Isn't that logistically impossible? Also, I seriously doubt the coaches would have sacrificed training facility space for their own luxury. Plus, I think the space you're referring to is a former training office area, not actual training treatment space.

[grm]

It's only one flight up to their offices. They could (and have) changed there very comfortably.
But the stuff does look nice!

[TDDance234]

Love it. A great facelift.

Yes, new flame...that is EXACTLY where I am talking about...and it doubled for rehab space as well.
(and yes, that area got pulled from the Athletic Training staff...but in fairness..it USED to be coach locker room space before RD gave it to the ATC's).

why not just add multiple AEDs on each floor then?

Man its really cool that they have plaques for Nwosu, Aluma, Hildebrand and Karl Hess in the team room. The guys I think need to remember the past as they look to the future and build a successful program.

Sly all they did was replace the 4 guys who's numbers are retired. Now I believe Alston's number should have been retired a long time ago. I expect Larry Blair to have his #22 retired as well. The funny thing about Liberty's retired jerseys is that someone has worn their jerseys after the person played. Aluma wore 00 after Juice and then they retired both of their numbers together. Hess' number has been worn numerous times, most recently by Glynn Turner and Damien Hubbard. Matt Hildebrand's sacred and glorious #20 (worn by a 6-3 200 lb guard from Philly as well) was also worn by a walkon during the Hankinson era as well as the Mascot during those early Hanky years. I don't know how he didn't know the number was retired since Hildo's plaque used to be in the lobby of the office plain as day. I hope we have the foresight not to let anyone where #22 if we have any plans whatsoever of retiring the jersey. # 10 was Alston's number if anyone cares. (Hess also wore 10 on occasion. I have seen pics). Chris Toomer wore 10 right after Alston and I think Jamaal Bennett wore #10 for Hank too...The improvements look 1000000000% better btw! Can't wait to see it in person. JCManson, I am going to need a new tour just like you.

[LU'sbestmanager]

Hess' jersey was just retired this year and that was dame's last year..... but kyle ohman will be wearing it.

i know what you mean scar

[SuperJon]

Apparently they're just honoring the numbers instead of retiring them.

[shukcb04]

theres a difference between retiring jerseys and retiring numbers. very few colleges actually retire numbers due to the restrictions the ncaa places on numbers. 9 times out of 10 the school has just retiredd the jersey, which means that people can still wear the number on the retired jersey.
