The University of Texas spent $7 million remodeling their football locker room and the results are jaw-dropping

Now check out the rest of Clemson's swanky new football facility.

So, how did the players react when they first saw their new locker room? As you can imagine, they were pretty pumped up.

 

"This shows we have the very best tools in the country. The lockers affect recruiting because the kids we’re recruiting are the same ones that some of the best schools in the nation are recruiting. A scholarship is a scholarship is a scholarship, no matter where you go. It’s about how you differentiate yourself." — Coach Tom Herman

And then there is the foot locker, with even more ventilation.

 

There is more ventilation at the base of the locker. It may still not smell great, but it will probably be the least stinky locker room in the world.

The drawers are even soft-close proving that they probably thought of everything.

 

 

Inside the safe is an outlet with USB ports.

Each Texas locker also has its own pin-pad safe.

Clemson's lockers were designed to look like thrones since they had just won the national championship.

The lockers are made by Longhorn Lockers, a company that has also made lockers for other top programs, including Clemson, Alabama, LSU, Oklahoma, and Stanford.

Behind the pads and helmet is a ventilation system that can be adjusted depending on how sweaty and smelly each player is or how much equipment they are packing into the locker.

Underneath the helmet and pads is a custom-made Battle Gear rack with a cooling fan at the top to help dry the helmets.

The glove hooks even have the Longhorns logo cut into them.

The "Hook Em" tray holds the player's helmet, pads, and gloves, and slides out for easier access.

 

Each locker has its own 37-inch television on top which is basically just the world's most expensive nameplate.

The lockers are stainless steel instead of wood, which allows them to have an anti-bacterial feature and reduces the stink.

Each locker costs $8,700 and head coach Tom Herman wanted them to literally glow.

The back-lit doors are also pocket doors that can be hidden.

 

But the star of the show is clearly the lockers, which are unlike anything ever seen before in a locker room.

 

The shower is immaculate.

Or maybe a high-end gym.

Even the bathroom looks like something out of a swanky hotel.

There is also a giant videoboard on the wall that can show games.

There is a not-so-subtle reminder on the back wall that the University of Texas can help players get to the NFL.

And yet another that has the "Pillars of the Program."

Another sign has the team's next opponent.

There are signs with the program's "core values," which includes "treat women with respect."

A lot of locker rooms have the team logo on the floor. The Longhorns now have a glowing Bevo on the ceiling. Can't step on that.

You enter the locker room by pulling on the Longhorns logo.
