NU put a shot video of the current state of WRA on their FB page. A look inside the crummy Men's BB lockerroom is shown towards the end.....

Any signs of the indian burial grounds?!?

And as depressing as the locker room may be when compared to state of the art facilities, at least there has been an upgrade. My last memories date back to the late 1980s, and that would have truly been an embarrassment...

Excited for the players and program as a new chapter begins!

Sorry it's still going to be a partial, re-do in a small, antiquated old shell of a building.

That lasted right up to 2007 when NU finally renovated them. We've all heard the stories of BC making up reasons why recruits couldn't go into the locker rooms because he didn't want them to see how embarrassing the facilities were.

It's going to be so nice to have genuinely great facilities across the revenue sports. The possibilities for future success are tantalizing.

I wonder if they're ever going to sell/auction any of this stuff. I don't think I've seen anything about that. If it went out, I missed it. I'd love to get my hands on my my seats and those concessions signs for my basement! I hope I didn't miss an announcement. I may need to call and ask tomorrow.

They were giving away some section signs on Twitter earlier today.

Seats are a great memento. I have a seat from the original Yankee Stadium. A friend has 3 rows of seats from Connie Mack Stadium(Shibe Park)arranged in a bleacher like structure in his "man cave"
