App Facilities Among 10 Best in Nation

Unread post by JTApps1 » Wed Jun 19, 2013 3:46 pm

A co-worker of mine found this list on dailyinfographic.com of the Top 10 College Athletic Facilities in the nation. We're among some pretty lofty company in this list.

Impossible...GoApps70 says that our facilities are not up to snuff for the SunBelt, therefore cannot possibly be top 10 in the country.

Not a single west coast team or north east team? All but Ohio State and depending on how you look at Louisville are all in the south. I think this list might be a tiny bit incredibly biased. 3 North Carolina schools as well. I think our facilities are top notch for the money available to us but I wouldn't put us in the top 10 in the country. No Oregon on this list?

What gives you an indication it is "incredibly biased"? Is the author an ASU grad? Is he from the South? Just wondering what would make you say that.

Oh, yeah. Handsome guy, really intelligent. However, what was said was that we needed to hear from the administration on a timetable for future stadium improvements or how long it will be until we do hear something. Especially with Dr. Peacock leaving and Charlie Cobb looking at other jobs last year, and the SoMiss AD job that he was the #1 candidate for just becoming available again,would be great to have an update while we can. With us having one of the smallest stadiums in the Sun Belt is a disadvantage for recruiting or bringing in FBS teams to Boone.

The author of the list is either a joker or an idiot.

I love our ASU facilities, given who/where/what we are, but we wouldn't be on a legitimate Top 50 list.

Except that a Dallas Cowboys scout was quoted as saying that our football facilities were top 40 in the nation (not just college). Sure, the list is still far from credible but don't be so quick to downplay us.

C'mon guys, we all love our Apps but let's be realistic. Top 100.
