Practice Facility

I bet right next to the RAc
I think near the stadium, either near the bubble, or maybe the tennis courts (and they would be moved).
But all of football is near the stadium. Why near the RAC, where lots of other sports are?
Because he asked a question about a practice facility on the basketball board
A little birdie told me it's going to be called the RWJBarnabas Health Athletic Performance Center. Groundbreaking any day now.....
Since it will replace the “Bubble” used for football it will be near the stadium .
I have heard that they like the space where the tennis courts are as they have that space plus the parking lot adjacent to it and they can connect to both the Hale center and the outdoor practice fields
That practice facility has already been built thanks to State Senator Lesniak .
I think there are plenty of people on this thread getting and giving sarcasm. Not sure where you are coming from with this.
This
They want it all connected if possible and $$ makes sense
Bubble would stay for other sports
Makes sense. Once side can overlook the Raritan and the other side can lead out to the outdoor practice fields and connect to the hale center.
That place is not large enough for a football field house. Too close to Cornelius Low House.
I thought the same thing but was assured that it is large enough. The other spot was in the front of the Yellow lot
It can definitely work if you build it close to the practice fields as possible and make it one big complex. One side can even open up into the outdoor practice fields.
Giving football there own space while allowing soccer and lacrosse to use the bubble. They need two indoor spaces and with baseball having a space to share with softball. We may actually be catching up somewhat.
This is where I would build it. Put a raised glass connector over the road with stairs that go down to the outdoor practice fields. Build it in the yellow lot
