Good looking expansion....

Next month, assorted members of the athletic department will move into a brand-new, three-story, 84,000-square foot palace that not only closes the north end of A.W. Mumford Stadium, but give the Jaguars perhaps the best football facility in the Southwestern Athletic Conference.

As for Hall, he will be on the first floor. His new weight room — ensconced in glass, right behind the first-floor lobby — will be a centerpiece, not a cubby hole.

Wow. First time I read that I though it was an 84,000 SEAT stadium....

Looks very nice. Glad to see more and more FCS schools being able to upgrade.

Glad to see an EKU fan prowling the boards.

Its 40 yards behind the goal line.

The purpose of the expansion wasn't additional seating it was to add locker rooms, weight room, meeting rooms etc.
The seats were just "gravy"

It does look good. It's too bad that the gravy wasn't a little closer to the meal though.

It's much closer than where the team used to dress and have to walk to the stadium.
