From Alan's podcast on LibertyFlames.com that is posted in the General Sports forum:

The practice facility for basketball, they did hit some rock behind Vines that did slow that down a little bit. So it is moving along but not quite where we would wanted to be at this point. We do expect to be in it by November. And it will be a great facility for those programs and volleyball will be able to use it as well.

I just can't see this project being done in seven months and when I say seven I'm talking steel being erected by may 1. Glass and Associates will have to work round the clock to get this done but regardless this will be a unique facility that will help recruiting.

cool pics



looks to me like they're setting steel on one half, staging supplies where the other half will be

be great if someone could leak the specs

...and it looks like we're going retro with a dirt floor

[DB89]

will the team be putting up the bricks soon?
(jk...continue on...)

[PAmedic]

yet another construction cam added that, though titled "Jerry Falwell Library South", gives a GREAT view of the new hoops facility.

Medic is the opening of the Practice Facility going to be the event that finally gets you down for a basketball game? Or are you waiting for my jersey/microphone retirement party?

Puh-leeze, a party? I'm still waiting on that batch of cookies. You can make it up to me by buying me a nice steak tho.

When I do make it down I will of course require private luxury box seating. Which SMOOTHIE will pay for.

If they can squeeze the opening into Homecoming weekend then I am in.

Wow Sly, I am happy you will be there for Homecoming but if that facility is completed by then, I don't know if I want to be standing inside it. That is a very short timeline for such a detailed building. I'm not in construction but that seems scary.

[Purple Haize]

I would say SCAR helped put a lot of those bricks in p,ace. But that's too obvious, even for me!

[TIMSCAR20]

Haize, I know you are a white boy from Indy so I could never out gun you from the perimeter on my best day. But if they used the bricks I layed in a Liberty Uniform they would only have a small pile of bricks That's because Alston never let me shoot

You couldn't out shoot me but our vertices are probably close!

[bigsmooth]

i talked some people that i know with glass and associates and they say no way its ready. if it had not been for all the rock that they encountered and had to blast it could have happened.

[PAmedic]

oooh mr big shot knows the construction timetable.

cant remember to return a windbreaker tho

@jeaker posted this pic a while back

like to see more views and something w/out that stupid instagram mucking it up

[PAmedic]

too lazy to start a new thread: did they re-do the existing locker rooms/team lounge or did it always look like this?

from Bryant Edwards @Bedwards02

[SuperJon]

It's been similar to that for a while.

[thepostman]

man, if it's been like that for a while I guess it has been a while since I was last in there. Looks pretty nice.
