A statement from Cal Poly provided more details on the endeavor:

"The $30 million project will feature 30,000 square feet of space over two stories that will include a locker room; hall of champions; strength and conditioning facilities; fueling station; team lounge; offices for coaches, equipment personnel and athletic trainers; and a team meeting room with tiered theater-style seating for 125 players."

Madden played football and baseball at Cal Poly in the late 1950s before moving on to a coaching career. He notably led the Oakland Raiders to a 103-32-7 record and a Super Bowl win during his head coaching tenure (1969-1978).

The 16-time Sports Emmy Award winner then became a color commentator, working for CBS, Fox, ABC and NBC during a three-decade career that spanned from 1979 to 2008.
