Apologize if someone referenced it already...However, I just wanted to let everyone know that the signage on the outside of the practice facility started to go up. A huge block S with Syracuse University in a nice font are already on the side of the building.

There appeared to be markers for the name of the facility as well at least but that was not up as of about a half hour or so ago.

It really looks terrific. Not sure if the S illuminates or will be lit with some flood lights but it is a welcome addition. I apologize for no pictures as I did not get the chance.

Go Orange!!!

Awesome!!!! Hope they put some color inside it too. Can you take a few pics for us out of towners?
 
Love how stark the S is against the white building I would have gone bigger with the S but this looks tasteful for the long term. It keeps more focus on the scale and presence of the building than the sign on it.
Remember how big the building is. I bet that S is 10 feet tall. Look at it with respect to the front doors on the building. It may be even taller than that.

I believe in the original plans the S was suppose to be larger. ;)

I for one like the signage. It looks appropriate for the building. The Ensley name should be extremely prominent but it is in balance with the SU logo.

Good job. I wonder who made the call here? Dr Gross or Mark Coyle? Whoever it was, I approve.

Had to have been under Gross' rule, no? Signs like this must have been in the planning and ordering stages at least 6 months ago.
 
Flying into Cuse...the IPF is probably the 3rd most visible building in the skyline now after the Dome and the MONY Towers (AXA) (will always be the MONY Towers to me)
I just said the same thing to myself on Tuesday when I got back. Got stuck in window seat, so was able to look outside. First thing I noticed.

With Ensley, we've arrived. We have all the tools to compete. As I have said to multiple people, we now have 3 indoor practice facilities. Who else can claim that?

I think someone here said that the plan was to have larger signage but the city wouldn't allow it due to some building code or such.
 
Like the guy in Milwaukee who painted welcome to Cleveland on his roof. I vote to vandalize all IPF's in the ACC.

We could do that to all away ACC hoops venues. "Welcome to 'Cuse country!"

I remember this being posted at one point as well.

I do think it looks good. Nice touch.
