Here are photos of USC's new $70 million athletics facility.

I kind of get the idea it is just for football, but it's called the athletics facility. The picture of the weight room just blows my mind. What kid wouldn't want to go to school there.

Their locker rooms are pretty basic...underground field is only good for walk throughs...whats the point?

If you can afford an underground field does there need to be a point for it?

So that's how the other half lives...huh?

What would you want a locker room to look like. Looks pretty nice with the individual video hookups.

Cuse athletes all got ipods as well...the difference is they can take theirs around with them and not just keep them at their locker.

Re: the last pic in the article. Anyone know if there are plans for a "We Own NYC" mural in the new SU facility?

actually the underground part is pretty interesting.. its unused space in most facilities. considering the lack of real weight on the interior of a practice facility you could almost put a fairly high ceiling underneath a practice area and get a bunch of extra space . campus locations are always at a crunch and what you can do underground is a bonus. i know here on campus they have done several pretty large underground facilities and some basement areas have huge open spaces you can drive into.

Not sure that the LA basin is my dream location for spending time underground.

I hope not.

To me, that is such a douchey statement. "We own LA" tries too hard. A very Lane Kiffin way to say it.

Can SU Football have 70 million dollars, please?

Eh, it's a joke related to the whole UConn thread about who really is NYC's team . . . . never mind . . . .

Of course it is: you have to be an amateur to get caught cheating.
