Just for comparison with our two biggest rivals.. UF's looks sick and I think was done recently. FSU's looks way better than ours but nothing crazy. Ours legit looks like early 2000s... puke.
 
Not a single recruit is rejecting Miami because of a lockerroom.

Also, what’s the fascination with Las Vegas lighting? That’s what going to get us those 5 stars?

Times have changed whether you like it or not. $$$ needs to be reinvested into our facilities if we want to compete with the schools who only have college football as their main event.

I don't understand how our facilty doesn't have a hall of fame or who's who of Miami football. Living in Atlanta I've been to the college football HOF. So many interactive ways to experience history. We gotta do more.

Our locker room is sh*t. Even when Kayaa did that walkthrough tour years ago when they were new, it looked like sh*t. I remember being embarrassed. It looks like a country club for naked old men changing after a round of golf. The trophy/accolade room is also pure sh*t.

Unfortunately in this day and age you have to keep renovating every so many years keep up.

A renovation is definitely needed and there are some amazing renovation designers right here in Miami. Id love for them to be unique in the design and make it Miami...unlike the other photos we've seen of other schools

If space is available id love one little area right when you walk so everyone has to walk by it... that has some lockers for all of our NFL HOF with their jersey photos etc hanging in it. Maybe a tv above each locker playing their highlights at Miami on a loop.... leave one locker empty for that future next HOF member
 
Cheapest , least financially invested fanbase in college sports wants top end crap but doesn't want to donate a dime. This school had to crowdfund to get the IPF built, because our fanbase is pathetically cheap. We can't keep squeezing our NFL alumni and the small alumni donor pool. You want Bama level crap, start spending some **** money. A good portion of our fanbase won't even invest in season tickets, or merch.

This.

People begging for bells and whistles lockerroom, but won’t put a single penny into the program.

How do you think these fūcking things get built?

They don’t make them with tuition money. It’s always booster money, ie, fans dropping cash into the program.

Anyone ever been inside the locker room? Assuming they get rid of the wood lockers. Would it make sense to have lockers along the walls and keep the rest of the space open?

This is exactly how it still looks. Not only is outdated, but small.

Will be impossible to expand in any direction due to practice fields, IPF, or Wellness Center, so got to compensate by being super sleek and efficient.
 
I read that they plan on extending the weight room. Not sure how that's possible.
