The figurative dust in LSU’s football operations building is mostly settled.
Aside from one position, a new-look coaching staff is complete. The 2018 roster is coming into focus, too. A handful of players have transferred and six juniors and more than a dozen seniors are off to begin training for pro ball.
However, the literal dust is expected to arrive to the operations building soon enough.
Renovations are set to begin Feb. 1, the school confirmed, as the program spruces up the 12-year-old football hub on Skip Bertman Drive. The project, estimated at about $23 million and spanning through next spring, is extensive, adding the long-talked-about nutrition center and a new entrance lobby, while expanding coaches’ offices, the locker room and training areas.
