The Big East gave us some money last year to convince us to let Temple in and to keep us from trying to move up in football. This is what we did with it. I had been in the old Powerhouse, and it was kind of a dump. This looks like a pretty nice facility now. Great way to start summer practices.

It seems on par with a weight room sized for men's basketball that you see at non-football schools.

Must be planning for the future. And also notice "Villanova Sports Performance" on the wall. xchinscratchx

The basketball team has their own facility. The football team primarily uses this one, but some other teams manage to sneak in.

CFBfan, it is pretty small. Its actually built under part of the visitors stands. The old model was 1 ground floor and sort of like a balcony. The new design has 2 terraces that free up floor space. We went of 6 racks on the main floor up to 8, so thats a big help.
