The John McKay Center had its official unveiling today.  USC's new $70 million, 110,000-square-foot athletic and academic facility is a powerful symbol of the rich Trojan history and the path blazed for future greatness at Troy.

The exterior design, described as "collegiate Romanesque," fits in with the rest of campus, while the interior is modern and edgy filled with glass windows that provide a bright, open air feel.

The building houses meeting rooms, coaches' offices and a locker room for the football program, as well as the Stevens Academic Center (including space for tutoring, counseling, study and computer rooms for student-athletes), a weight room, an athletic training room and a state-of-the-art digital media production facility for all of USC's 21 sports.

The centerpiece of the McKay Center is the two-story video board in the Parker Hughes atrium, which can display six big screen televisions at once as well as promotional videos and graphics.

Wow that is incredibly impressive to say the least.

My only quip is that the facility itself way overshadows the weight rooms and training areas.

It's like they focused on designing a luxury Manhattan apartment building and threw a few pieces of nice equipment in there to call it an athletic facility.

I've been to OSU's a few times and USC shits all over it.
