The $63.5 million renovation project for Littlejohn Coliseum began in late May 2015. The rebuilt Coliseum will inspire and engage both the players and the fans through a whole new interior layout and design that will be extremely media rich.

In addition to a renovated playing arena and seating bowl (approximately 8,500 seats), the facility will incorporate all aspects of men‘s and women‘s basketball program operations. This includes coaches‘ offices, weight rooms, locker rooms, video editing and theater areas housed in a separate practice facility addition.

The project is expected to be completed in full by October. Simon said some parts of the new facility will be open to fans by the Tigers’ home opener for football on Sept. 10.
