Top 10 College Locker Rooms

Save to my locker

Simplicity goes far with this locker room. A nice, clean look fits the Michigan personality. Nothing special but a well organized locker room for a well organized team.

9. Texas A&M

$450 million worth of renovations went into Kyle Field and that included a brand new locker room for the Aggies. From position specific meeting rooms to a film room with incredibly comfortable looking chairs, the Aggies will be feeling like kings in their locker room.

8. Nebraska

An ideal locker room layout with a nice wood finish?! Keeping it classy Nebraska. Along with a players lounge that includes a pool table with multiple retro style arcade games. I don’t know what else you may need.

7. Tennessee

Anderson Training Center is 145,000 square feet and every inch consists of envy inducing services from hydrotherapy, multi-level weight room and player’s lounge. The entire locker room is wired up with a coach-player video delivery system, allowing easy communication throughout the massive locker room.

6. Oklahoma

The Sooners take pride in their locker room and believe that their start of the art design and overall appeal attracts recruits. They may be biased but their locker room is very impressive and has an abundance of practical services that any athlete would need after practice or games. Hydrotherapy, indoor practice facility, grooming area and lounge are only a few of the many features this locker room has to offer.

5. LSU

The Jeff Boss locker rooms were redesigned 2 years ago. With this new-ish design, LSU wanted to put an emphasis on routine and organization. The Tigers believe that starts in the locker room. Precise planning along with a sleek new design makes this locker room practical while also being aesthetically pleasing. The yellow and purple are an intimidating combination and they capture that feeling well with the design.

4. Ohio State

The Buckeyes went with a more modern, metallic style to their locker room and it looks great. I think it fits the style of team and gives the locker room an unique touch. With hydrotherapy areas, a water wall (Yes, I meant water wall), and grooming areas with a players lounge makes this one of the most appealing locker rooms.

3. Notre Dame

Notre Dame has some of the deepest roots in college football. Their locker room exit sign is infamous but what lies beyond that is one of the best locker rooms in college sports. The simplicity of the locker room has an inspiring feel to it. This is very cliche but sometimes less is more. This would be one of those cases where it works to perfection.

2. Alabama

This is what you get when you win. A memorabilia junky or Roll-Tide die hard would go bananas for this locker room. They have a section specific to first round draft picks. Not many schools can fill a wall with professional athletes let alone NFL first round draft picks. Alabama is always trying to pull in the best talent and with a locker room like this, I’m not surprised they do. A players lounge with games and pool tables wall to wall with the hydrotherapy area makes this an ideal vacation spot…I mean, locker room.

How Alabama's New Facility Compares to Oregon's New Football Performance Center

1.Oregon

And this is what you get for being the alma mater of one of the world’s biggest sports wear distributors. Phil Knight & Bill Bowerman, co-founders of Nike attended Oregon and gave back to the school in different ways. They may not have paid for the locker room but you can bet their donation helped the Ducks create the best locker room in college sports. State of the art technology and style that can only be captured in pictures. Enjoy.

When doing research in the recruiting process for my daughter I came across the LRT Sports website. I was immediately intrigued as this was another dimension of the recruiting process that many people don't even consider. My daughter and I could "short list" schools based on the education she was looking for, as well as the opportunity to play her sport. LRT Sports not only gave us pertinent information into the recruiting process with different interviews of coaches and players, it also gave us insight into current and/or former players' opinions on the coach of that school in her sport. We could use this information to re-prioritize my daughters list of schools based on this feedback. I have many friends that are, or will be, going through this process shortly and I highly recommend using LRT Sports as part of anyone's recruiting process.

The college process presents a myriad of challenges. Factor in athletics and it becomes even more daunting. Now, add the fact that you have zero experience with sports. What is a the mother of a college bound student-athlete to do? LRT Sports has truly lived up to its promise. It has kept "the college recruiting process honest and easy by providing first hand information about coaches, schools and the recruiting process." Their interviews with current students, coaches, and professional athletes have provided realistic guidance. I am much more informed because of LRT Sports! The coach ratings are the most helpful. LRT Sports interviews allow us to hear from students as to how the adults are impacting not only their athletic experience but also how they are helping to shape their adult self.

The C.A.L.C. was thrilled to have Keirsten Sires come and speak to us on multiple topics relevant to high school athletics today, including recruiting. Keirsten reached all of our students and left them with great strategies that will not only help on the fields, courts, and mats, but also in the game of recruiting. She was a true professional and delivered a wonderful message.

Now that the recruiting process and the related stress is over, I wanted to thank you for your guidance. You did so much more than we had expected. Once you started the process by matching the best academic schools first, not the best sport programs, I knew you were the one. The way you laid out a timeline of contacting coaches, visits, and camps completely took any guesswork out of the plan for us. All of the student athletes that you put us in touch with gave us a look from the inside, and made us more comfortable knowing what was coming. Finally, using your website as a resource for knowing what to expect from different coaches based on former recruit reviews gave my son confidence before our meetings. There is no way we could have figured this out on our own, you really put us in a great position when decision time came.

I think hearing from other athletes is very beneficial. To be able to learn from people’s mistakes, and to be able to have access to those voices is really helpful; especially voices that have been there and done that. It’s very important for people to have access to information that could benefit them, and in this case there are many voices that can help the next wave of athletes.

If you have something that’s going to spell [the recruiting process] out for you… it’s so valuable. I think what everyone at LRT Sports is doing to spread the word and help advocate and educate athletes on the recruitment process is incredible.

Brooke Cabrera

Without question would have used LRT Sports. It would have probably been one of the most valuable tools that I could have had. If you want to know what these coaches are really like then I think this is the best tool out there. I’m really glad you are allowing recruits to have a resource like this moving forward.
