The Guglielmino Athletics Complex

This photo is of the 45-yard Prestige Turf field meant for speed testing and drills right outside strength and conditioning coach offices.

Plasma televisions are throughout the new building. The Haggar Fitness Center features six. More are planned for the locker room and lounge. And there are two new swim exercise pools for training and rehab workouts.

This shows a balcony view of the new weight room. The balcony is part of the second floor recruiting lounge.

Here is the video coordinator's work area. With this video setup every coach will have access to game and practice video from any room in the building.

The view from Weis' office. It's on the far south end of the second floor. The buildings in the distance are the JACC to the left and Rolfs Rec Center to the right. Yes, the office does open out to a sun deck complete with umbrella over a four-seat table. Ahhhh, the life.

Above is the practice week lockerroom. And above the lockers are ghosted images of former players and game day scenes.

Here's a look at the lockers during construction and afterwards. The lockers are wide, with many compartments and are in a stylish wood finish. The bottom of the lockers has a shoe warmer compartment so that the previous day's rain-soaked footwear will be dry by the next day's practice.

This two-story mural is in the public area of the Guglielmino near the entrance of Haggar Fitness Center. It is peppered with photos of players old and new, quotes and Fighting Irish facts. It certainly takes awhile to take it all in.

Another shot of the mural.

A look at the main reception area on the second floor, which houses Football Operations.

The back wall of the second-floor recruiting lounge.

The west wall of the lounge. It offers a view of the Dome and Stadium. You'll also notice banners hanging. There are eleven, one for each National Championship.

A close-up of the National Championship banners that adorn the recruiting lounge. (For the record, the Stadium is also full of banners this year to celebrate 75 years of Notre Dame football).

A long shot of the recruiting lounge.

Another display.

The exterior of the complex, it is quite sizeable to say the least. The facility is so large it has an indoor area to hold team buses in inclement weather. Quite lavish.
