Williams knows that more hurdles must be cleared before the master plan becomes reality. The estimated cost of the project, whose centerpieces will include a new football operations center and a new Olympic sports center, is $180 million.
"We need to invest in our football program for the long-term stability of our entire department," Williams said. "However, it is also obvious that our Olympic sports that occupy University Hall and Onesty Hall need a new home."
The master plan also calls for the construction of three natural grass practice fields – two for football, the other one for multiple sports -- and the renovation of the McCue Center. Since it opened in 1991, the McCue Center has housed UVA's football team. It also includes offices for athletics administrators and most of Virginia's Olympic sports coaches.
