The University of Nebraska announced plans to construct a $155 million athletic facility — one that the school says will be the largest of its kind in the country. Plans call for a 350,000-square-foot complex sited just northeast of Memorial Stadium. While the facility will house the football program, providing it with a new locker room, a strength and conditioning center, an athletic medicine facility, an equipment room, meeting rooms, coaches’ offices and an outdoor practice facility, each of the school’s more-than 600 student-athletes will benefit from the planned training table and academic support spaces the facility will include. Groundbreaking is expected to take place next summer. — Huskers.com
