I just checked out the Top 10 and 3 of the schools were recruiting my youngest for athletics, but they decided to forgo playing and stick to academics.

So if I am reading that list correctly, did an A&M satellite school rank higher than A&M?

Not certain if there is bias or not...but out of the top 100 hardest to get in..on a national basis....12 out of the top 100 are located in the State of California.

A&M is becoming a diploma mill when you look at the projected #s of enrollment in the future. That's what you get for bending over to Perry. 

 

Hey, I'm sure Chancellor Sharp will have some witty comment about athletics while his school becomes a diploma mill.
