re: PMAC question

Need more space to accommodate the teams. Men and women should have their own separate practice arenas. Arguably, volleyball should have their own as well. It wouldn't take much to build those new practice facilities.

LSU loves the idea of keeping all sporting events within the confines of the campus. That change started with the new Alex Box. Then it happened to tennis.

A new basketball stadium that could function for other events outside of basketball/gymnastics/volleyball by hosting concerts and other large events would be great, but you would need to find the money and space.

Minimum price tag is $200 million. Texas just did it recently and it looks great. Unfortunately, you would need to build off campus.

Track and swimming are going to eventually leave Bernie Moore/Carl Maddox/Natatorium and probably take over some of the old LSU golf course (which golf doesn't use either - plays at U Club) and I imagine those areas would accommodate new parking lots and practice facilities. A new outdoor track will run for no more than $20 million. Indoor might bump that up a bit more because if we want a hydraulic track, it would be a massive uptick in price. I have no clue what swimming facilities would cost.

Carl Maddox can easily convert to basketball/volleyball for whoever they want. They already have offices for T&F and it would be a simple exchange of keys, new flooring, and eventually converting the cheer practice room to a weight room. I'm speculating a lot on what exactly Carl Maddox will be turning into, but I know for a fact that T&F will not be using that facility in the next couple of years.
