By the start of the 2019 season, Illinois football will have a new home.

The Henry Dale and Betty Smith Football Performance Center is expected to be completed by the start of next football season and construction has been ongoing since winter. While it won’t be open for several months, Illinois recently checked in on the construction, giving folks a sneak peek of the project.

Along with the video of the construction, Illinois also provided some renderings of what the building will look like once its completed. And yes, it’s going to be a spectacular addition.

Illinois joins Purdue and Northwestern as two other B1G programs to dedicate a state-of-the-art facility to the football program.

The facility will feature new and expanded strength and conditioning and sports medicine space, coaches’ offices, position meeting rooms, player development areas, locker rooms, and other areas for recruiting and prospect hosting. Construction of the new football performance center will be completed prior to the 2019 season. The building naming is pending approval by the University of Illinois Board of Trustees.

The estimated cost of the Football Performance Center is $79.2 million.
