Nope...not while they are still playing at Rupp. It is big...but it is not the best. I would say that Bud Walton Arena is the leader.
Rupp is nearly 40 years old, and is past its prime.

Question was best overall facilities, not best stadium alone.
Football: Tennessee is right up there with Bama - Historic stadium and state of the art indoor practice facility/weight room/training area/restaurant/locker rooms and much more.
Basketball: Tennessee - Best arena and arguably the best practice facilities.
Baseball - Definitely not Tennessee

I'm biased, I know, but what A&M is doing to Kyle lacks imagination and style. It's like the Dallas mansions. Very big, very nice but no character. That's what Kyle is to me.
I get that there can be an argument that the environment is better, but nicer? Kyle is nicer than Death Valley.
Plus our other football facilities are often better.

State will have the nicest college baseball stadium in the country in about 3 years.

This is adorable on so many levels. The stadium has yet to be completed, you probably have never experienced any iteration of Kyle Field, but I have no doubt you 100% everything you've said. It's like a woman explaining why she doesn't like the new pretty bitch that just got hired. It's incredible how insecure y'all are.

That concession stand does look like a dump.
And again, I didn't start it, you did.

TS does not belong anywhere near the top of a "nicest stadiums" list. It's getting better, but it's still outdated and shitty in many areas.
The concourse alone looks like someone timewarped it in from the 1980's.

Maybe the interior updates will be awesome. The outside is just ordinary. It looks like every other updated facade in the last 10 years.

UGA has the GOAT tennis facility and turf-floored garage.

Good point. The concourses are ridiculous, especially in the upper decks.

Yes one of the biggest screens in any football stadium anywhere is ordinary.
Can't you just give us credit for ONE frickING THING other than being an overrated football team? It would give your arguments more credibility.

I must agree, that if state's renovations look like their renderings they will have the best baseball stadium in the conference.

It is, actually. Big screens aren't game changers anymore. Everyone has them.

Y'all are updating your stadium and it will be nice. I never said it wouldn't be. I just said it lacked imagination and character.

Examples please. You can even include Blue Bell Park as a start.

As long as you all parade dipshits like aggiedynasty and fawx, the ATM posters here deserve just as much flak as Arkansas.
