The most recent glimpse is the unveiling of the Keith and Janet Sherin Locker Room and the Pat and Jana Eilers Performance Center. The looks on the faces of the Notre Dame football players doesn’t just say a million words, it says a trillion words.
Safe to say the guys are excited about the new digs 😁

This is just the tip of the iceberg for the Shields Family Hall. According to Notre Dame, this massive facility is now the central hub for the football program.
The facility will include an advanced training room; a stand-alone sports medicine facility; an equipment facility with body scanning and fabrication technology; a new and expanded locker room; meeting rooms, including a two-level, all-team auditorium and an augmented reality walkthrough room; media innovation spaces, including recording studios and photo studios; academic support spaces; and a new player nutrition area designed to foster community between teams and model healthy eating.
Notre Dame is currently one of the favorites to win the national championship this season with the Heisman front runner at quarterback. The head coach is on everyone’s “throw some money at him and see if he wants this NFL job” list, and the Irish are killing it out on the recruiting trail. This is a program that is hell bent on being the nation’s best, and are pouring everything they can into accomplishing that goal.
This is a major flex for Notre Dame and they are just getting started.
