When recruits talk about Facilities, I don't think they are only talking about the Athletic Facilities.
 
Surely, they are thinking about the total set of University facilities in which they will use if and when they decide on a school.
 
This would include the campus, the classrooms, student center, the dorms / living quarters and the neighbors surrounding the campus ... including the areas like Marshall St. (Bars, restaurants, shops, etc.).
 
A school like Georgetown does not have good athletic facilities, but the campus itself is nice and "M" Street and all of Washington, DC start at the main gate of the campus.
 
A school like Rutgers may have good athletic facilities (So I have been told, at least for football), but the campus itself is pretty ratty. I would think that the total facilities "package" at SU is at least as good.
 
Schools like Louisville are in downtown locations and don't really even have "campuses". They are like Drexel in Philadelphia, which is just a bunch of buildings on busy streets around a few block area.
 
Walk up from Marshall Street and stop in the Student Center. Than continue on up past HL to the Quad. Then walk to the Dome.
 
Are these campus facilities substandard versus our competitions? I don't think so.
