The complex will include:

Dedicated meeting space for the team

Locker rooms

Coaches' offices

Currently the west side of the John W. and Janice B. Fisher Football Training Complex is closed off to general faculty and students for safety purposes.

Marlene Mitchell, an administrative assistant on the project, said there is a sign in front stating that students and faculty should enter the east entrance in the back to ensure they don't walk into potentially hazardous areas. While visits to the area are appreciated, Mitchell said safety is the biggest concern.

If students need to come in, they should proceed to the gate one entrance. If traveling by car, there is a parking lot in the back by the east side that will be used on a "first come, first serve" basis.

The new football team complex is still expected to be completed within its original 12-18 month time frame.
