Football upgrades coming, as Clemson tries to stay ahead in arms race

College football has been engaged in an arms race for decades to see which programs can build and maintain the best facilities in the sport.

In 2017, Clemson opened the Allen Reeves Football Complex a $55 million headquarters for football operations. The 142,000 square foot building includes a state-of-the-art weight room, sports medicine center, meeting rooms, offices and even a slide and nap room.

But since then, other schools in the Tigers’ footprint have also ramped up their facilities. For example, in 2019 South Carolina opened a 111,000 square foot football operations facility with a $50 million price tag.
