The DMRag article called it a "practice gym". But you'd think that they would build more than a gym.
ISU's plans had a full size court for
MBB with two courts going the opposite direction (see link).
WBB had the same and then there are three VB courts. Barta had no blueprints, so this would be a situation where he would hire an architect, raise money, then go back to the regents and get approval to start. I'd look for it to be open by the time practice starts in 2009. Hopefully,
ISU has theirs done by that time as well.
