I hope this is a case of build it and they will come and those that come will WIN. But we will see. Not even approved to happen yet. Heck I always thought the Nutter Field house was pretty darn nice anyway but guess they feel we need more.

New Practice Facility In The Works For UK Football
According to the agenda for Friday's UK Board of Trustees meeting, plans are in the works for a new $45 million football practice facility.
The project will reportedly include a new two-story structure and two practice fields with an adjoining drill area built at the east end of the existing Nutter Field House. The new building will house administrative offices, locker spaces, team meeting areas, training areas, high performance and weight room spaces, equipment rooms, a hydrotherapy room, player locker rooms, lounge facilities, an academic lounge/study area, and an entrance lobby with enhanced visitor amenities.
The document attached to the meeting agenda indicates the facility will be built with private funds.
If approved by the Board of Trustees, this project will be submitted to the Council on Postsecondary Education and the Capital Projects and Bond Oversight Committee for authorization in February.
