I actually made a post on this topic on another site a week ago or two ago. Basically it sounds like Minnesota has better facilities than Notre Dame, Nebraska, Iowa and Iowa State according to at least one recruit, Nebraska commit Blaise Gunnerson. Heres what I said:
So I was reading a Nebraska forum for fun and decided to search "Minnesota" in the forum to see what they were saying about us, just out of curiosity. There was one thread and a few comments that caught my eye.
"
In the thread on Gunnerson, I just posted an interview an Iowa station did with him after his announcement. The best facilities he saw were Minnesota, and he thought the others were comparable."
"Moos should publicize that, and that comment should be good for a few boosters to want to pony up.... Unless they don't mind Fleck having better facilities for recruiting than Frost, of course."

These comments were talking about Nebraska 4 star commit Blaise Gunnerson who during his recruiting process has visited Nebraska, Minnesota, Notre Dame, Iowa and Iowa State, all of them at least twice so it's safe to say he definitely got a good look at all of their facilities.

This is what he said exactly
Q: Talk to me a little bit about those facilities. You know Iowa State has their indoor, Iowa has their indoor. You got to see just about everybody's facilities, weight rooms. Talk about the similarities and differences between all three (Nebraska, ISU, Iowa) of those schools.
A: Yeah, so like I said there pretty similar. Iowa State, they are remodeling theirs right now, I'm assuming thats going to be really nice and then Nebraska's, the weight room's pretty nice. I know their going to keep making renovations to all that stuff. They're pretty comparable.
The school I visited that kind of stood out with the facilities was Minnesota, like those were just insane. They finished it last January and they were just nuts.
Here is the interview if you want to listen to it, he talks about the facilities about about 7:40 in.It's the interview from July 9th

So having better facilities than ISU is nice, they added over $20 million to their football complex a few years ago. Having better facilities than Iowa is also pretty nice as well, they opened up a new $55 million football complex a few years ago. But having better facilities than Nebraska and Notre Dame really caught my eye, two big helmet schools. I feel like there is a perception that a lot of gopher fans have that although are new facilities are nice, Nebraska's are nicer, they have the waterfall and all. And of course Notre Dame is one of the best programs in the country so that's pretty huge as well.
Anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed those comments, I know I did.
