EAST LANSING – Shovels will be in the dirt soon as Michigan State is set to begin work on its new football facility.
The school’s Board of Trustees on Friday authorized work to begin on the first phase of the renovation to the Skandalaris Football Center.
The first phase of the project will cost $11 million and is scheduled to be finished in October, 2023. It includes moving the current weight room, demolition and installing temporary walls and utilities to prepare the site for the full renovation to come.
The athletic department is scheduled present a budget for the full project in June. No timeline for full completion of the building, which will be called the Tom Izzo Football Building and be funded entirely by donations, has been presented.
