Texas seeking approval for new basketball practice facility

According to an agenda posted for the University of Texas Board of Regents, Wednesday’s special meeting will feature a discussion on the next steps forward to build a new Texas Longhorns basketball facility to replace Cooley Pavilion, which will eventually be demolished along with the Erwin Center.

Since the university announced plans last year for Oak View Group to build and operate a new arena at no cost to the school in a unique public-private partnership, there have been questions about where the new basketball facility will be and who will build it.
