Preliminary plans call for construction for the 80,000-sf steel building to begin in fall 2016.
The facility, to be located adjacent to the new $125 million football stadium, will feature a 120-yard synthetic turf practice field and a 12,000-sf strength and conditioning area specifically designed for football. In the past year, regents also approved a $60 million upgrade of the Houston Basketball Center and plans for a new 20,000-sf, two-story player development center and clubhouse along the third-base line of the school's baseball stadium. The track at the Carl Lewis International Complex also is being renovated in a $1.8 million project.
