Nice to hear that the track and field team will also be getting a new facility on South Campus.
  
87,000 feet is a big IPF. $17 million is a lot of money for one. IMHO, it will likely be the best facility of its kind in the ACC or Big East when it opens (maybe tied with FSU).
  
Here are some others for comparison:
  
Michigan Indoor Practice Facility
Opened 2009. Cost $26.1 million. 90,631 square feet. This one has a brick exterior to match the rest of the campus buildings. One way to dispose of some of that B1G Network cash.
 
Bergstrom Football Complex (Iowa State)
Opened 2004. Cost $10 million. 92,000 square feet 
 
Clemson has a 80,000 square foot facility in the process of being developed. It will cost $10 million. FSU is spending $17 million to build one. Duke started the ACC IDF trend with their $10 million facility which opened last fall. G Tech is spending $7 million on their own IPF. BC doesn't have an IPF but can put a bubble over their Alumni Stadium field to create a poor man's Carrier Dome for practice in bad weather.
