An entry lobby at the northeast corner of the building has been added that highlights Ohio State’s football tradition. Recruits will pass through the lobby en route to a new second-story players’ lounge – “Sloopy’s Hangout” – which overlooks the strength training area. The centerpiece of the lobby is a lighted “championship wall” celebrating Ohio State’s national championship teams.
