How do you feel about your school's facilities?

The facility 'arm's race' is neverending, with schools spending tons of money to have the biggest and nicest weightrooms, stadiums, etc.
So, how do you feel about your team's facilities? Are they on par or nicer than the others in the SEC or whatever conference you're in? Are they lacking, and if so, what do they need to add or improve? I recently read an article ranking facilities and just wanted this forum's views on the matter. How does yours stack up?

Now that we switched back to Coke instead of Pepsi, I have no complaints

There are tiers.... Big 6 & A&M are comparative
And then there is everyone else, Although Ole Miss has improved a lot. Vandy is still pretty meh as is Missouri.

Uh, why would someone downvote this post? Just curious, I said nothing derogatory or insulting about any school or fanbase, and said nothing to uplift or brag on my school and simply asked a benevolent question about the reader's own school. What is so bad about that, that it would deserve a downvote?

Our baseball facilities are unmatched
Football is middle of SEC but much better than most would think for us
Basketball is not good but is getting a big upgrade soon apparently

I think our football facilities are being improved upon already, but the ones we do have are very nice.
What we currently have:
What we are going to have with a $200 Million renewal:

Football is decent. Has improved a lot since we joined the SEC. Stadium is still lower half of the conference, but the training facilities are elite.
Basketball is very good.
Baseball is very poor compared to most of the SEC.

I feel we waste to much money on facilities. Would be cooler it they used all this money to make education cheaper

Our higher education system is a joke and needs to fail.

It will be interesting to see if NIL slows the arms race in facilities. I think it likely will.

I've never been able to tour my school or any other school's athletic facilities, so I'm unable to give you a proper response.

Once we revert to grass in two years , DKR is fine. Moody is a very good new facility.
Disch Falk, I don’t know if they will ever be able to equip it with grass (shade, etc). I hate that thing

Facilities aren’t our problem…

Facilities are great with one exception. I think it's time that we as a society move away from troth urinals.

Arkansas has that Walmart/Jerry Jones money, our facilities are great.

Across the board, I think they are top notch.
Bud Walton could use an update, but it's big and no real complaints about it. Just time for a few upgrades.

This feels like a survey. Who is paying you to do this?
Posted on 3/21/23 at 9:44 am to Darindawg
Not great but could be worse. Lot of improvements made over the last decade

I dislike the renovations done to Neyland. Football isn’t about comfort and amenities. It’s about noise and passion

Football-
JHS needs more club and box seats, but I’m glad we didn’t ever overbuild upper decks that will be tougher to fill in the future. Overall aesthetic and ability to hold noise is near the top of the SEC IMO. New practice facility is top notch and arguably best in the nation.
Basketball-
Perfect for our program. Best home court advantage in the country
Baseball-
Need some serious upgrades
