An inside look at proposed Memorial Coliseum upgrades and their possible price tag

If the University of Kentucky gets key items on its Memorial Coliseum renovation wish list it will cost the school about $15 million, according to documents released to the Herald-Leader.

A feasibility study commissioned by the UK Athletics Department says that renovating the 68-year-old building at the center of campus could have a big price tag.

Updating the aging facility probably will be an important part of the university’s upcoming capital campaign, which has not kicked off yet.

“I don’t think there’s a time line,” UK Athletics Director Mitch Barnhart said of the Memorial Coliseum project.
