That practice facility is probably the nicest basketball facility I've ever been in. I got to take a tour with a former UK women's player and it was absolutely incredible.

UGA- awesome BBall/gym practice facility just built
Facelift on Stegeman will be completed in time for next season.
IPF and upgrade to weightroom/lockerroom for FB ongoing right now.
Reed Alley at Sanford should be good to go at some point next year.

Foley Field is under consideration, but space a problem

Oh, and by far the best NCAA tennis facility.

Just some design flaws, like putting a LCD TV in a narrow hallway


One can never have too many 60" Hi Def TVs. within the athletic building. It's actually a stroke of genius to have the big screens lining the hallways and other non- traditional locations and has really paid off for Auburn this past year in recruiting. I'm not going to go into the why its been so successful, you'll have to figure that out yourself. Chizik knows what he is doing.

Got bad arse Palmeiro Center and now bad arse Templeton Center. Currently building an unbelievable basketball practice facility. I'd say the nation's best kept secret.

Overall Arkansas has the best.

Football isn't the best Stadium but it is a nice one with a huge arse jumbo tron.

We have 2 practice fields (one grass, one turf) an indoor. Our weight room is the longest in the nation and it overlooks the 2 practice fields.

Basketball. Bud Walton is one of the best places to play in America.

Baseball- Baum Stadium is the shite. Top 3 stadium in the nation.

Track- We are the Yankees of track and field.

Students don't pay a DIME towards the athletic fund either. Only school in the nation that can say that.

You started out good, but when you got to the part of thanking N. Saban, you completely dropped the ball. Did any of the money come out of saban's pocket...at the time, nobody even knew n. saban, he was a nobody...a wanna be...LSU made saban...and LSU's success's created all of the facilites....LEAVE THE SABAN GREATNESS shite TO THE BAMA TALKING HEADS...

Football operations facility is first class as is the baseball stadium. Basketball is getting a new practice facitily, but the area itself is middle of the conference.

We catch hell about facilities on here when in reality everything is nice except for our football stadium, which if you didn't know, is pretty important these days. They need to hurry up with the rennovation plans so we can not pack it out.

I guess you could knock the actual stadium if you wanted to. Other than that, very nice facilities.

No, it's downtown.

The Craft Center, our basketball practice facility, is nicer than most NBA facilities though.
