Nope, we are just now committed to the arms race that is big time college BB
 
Here is George Blaney's son giving a tour.

Nope, most of it is all basketball. They are doing an addition that will attach it to another building that is student access. There are some things in this that other athletes have access to I would have to believe but I don't know that for certain (just seems a bit much just for men's basketball). The barber shop, hyperbaric chambers, sleeping pods, etc...
Expand ...
I took a look at when then first announced it and thought some was multi-purpose. Regardless, it really looked pretty cool and well thought out. Sleeping pods look cool but... shrug. Hyperbaric chambers were very cool though, and available to all athletes, I believe.

My takeaway is that PC understands that there a shooting war in major college basketball and they don't want to left by the wayside. That's a good thing to see from a future conference partner. I have to believe the facility will help your recruiting.

Hey, especially once we are conference-mates again, fully expect me to throw some shade your way. It's just business. Nothing personal. ;)

LOL, I will say that the job Father Shanley has done with the campus is simply beyond my ability to comprehend. It was always decent, now it is simply like a beautiful park with nice complimentary buildings. He has raised more money in his tenure than the school had in the previous 90 years combined. Leadership matters.

BTW, in an interesting note, His brother and his design firm came up with the BE name and logo in 1979

Now you just have to airlift the campus someplace else.

Haven't been there in 15 years or so but they must have torn everything down and started over because it wasn't much of a campus back then.

The practice facility is very cool and well thought out though.

there is that, but even the neighborhood is improving. It's blue collar for sure though, like most Catholic schools other than Nova. Let's put it this way, it's certainly not the neighborhood surrounding Trinity.

they sure did, they built a really great Lacrosse/Field hockey facility/field and raised it slightly above ground and used the entire area underneath for parking and then built nice buildings where parking lots used to be and made the whole campus flow. They also spent millions renovating Schneider Arena for the hockey programs.

Here is quick transformation video of the Eaton and Huxley sides of the campus, lots of green space, All the flyover videos I could find are old.

Certainly better but not too impressed, the practice facility is nice though.

Beautiful place to hang all your trophies, championship banners & celebrate Kris Dunn as your only lottery pick since any of the kids you’ll be recruiting have been alive.

Exactly, we hung an 8th place one up recently.
 
Beautiful facility and a testament to the great job the architect did translating what they felt was important into a physical plant that is very attractive and meets their objectives.

But, they have to hope recruits don't ask many questions or ask any in depth questions.

Any of them that give it any thought would have to question the hype throughout the building about: championships; Blaney's comment about "THE final four"; plus the one championship trophy on display. Doesn't say much about results but hey, as Canon says, image is everything, and this image is pretty nice.
 
We can hardly stay focused on a recruiting thread as is but now we need to get through 25 posts about how PC isn’t ascared of us no more and look at our new sand box.

Needless to say his stock is rising.

Love his game. 6'5 205lb athlete. Can giard 2-4, even the 1 in a pinch. Shoots it well enough, good athlete. Late riser in the rankings. Jersey kid. Has mentioned in a few interviews how he prides himself on defense.
Expand ...
He’s definitely Hurley’s type. Big, athletic, defensive minded guard.
