Headington Hall Opened in July of 2013, Headington Hall houses 380 OU students including 180 student-athletes. The facility is named in honor of former OU tennis player Tim Headington,one of many OU alums who gave generously to this project. Located on the corner of Jenkins and Lindsey, southeast and across the street from Memorial Stadium, it boasts apartment-style accommodations in two and four-bedroom units. The building includes central dining, computer labs and study rooms as well as a Faculty-in-Residence unit. The $75 million facility, which replaces Bud Wilkinson Hall, was funded by the University of Oklahoma Department of Intercollegiate Athletics.

The first floor features Einstein’s Bagels and OU Bookstore locations with room for future development. The facility is approximately 230,000 square feet and six stories tall, giving it a significant new campus presence. It is designed in the style of the University’s historic buildings, as well as modern additions like the Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial Stadium, across Jenkins Avenue. Former Sooners Adrian Peterson and Sam Bradford made substantial donations to Headington Hall. The Sam Bradford Training Table is a state-of-the-art dining facility that fulfills the dietary and nutritional needs of all OU student-athletes, not just the residents of Headington Hall, in a vastly-expanded modern space.
