Florida has a higher graduation rate, and is ranked academically higher than most Big 10 schools... Which conference is lacking IQ again?
Which conference has the recruiting edge? - Sports - The Lantern - Ohio State University These guys seem to think otherwise.
What? You mean a tOSU site is complaining about the SEC? No.... And they cannot complain anymore since they hired the slimiest coach in all of CFB.
Penn State football comments: Weather, lower academic standards give SEC competitive edge over Big Ten | PennLive.com
I'm not going to argue that the academic standards are not lower in the SEC. But what gives the SEC the most advantage in CFB? The fact that most elite HS athletes are in the South. Sorry. The Big 10 will always lose the recruiting battles with elite HS athletes. What kid from Florida wants to go to Wisconsin?
No question. Absolutely 10000% agree. Athough we do pretty well in Florida typically. You should see Wisconsin's in state talent. It sucks donkey balls. We have poached our best players over the years from Ohio, NJ, Iowa, Illinois. Ohio has very good in state talent. Gary Andersen seems to be drawing from out west now. We will see how that goes long term.
I laughed. Yes, any dolt with a room temperature IQ should be allowed into a Big 10 University. Just like they are in the SEC. You have definitely exposed the Big 10 for the horrible, discriminating, elitist, high-brows that they are. I know a few guys that went to school in the south after getting average grades up here and they instantly became incredible students. Kind of ironic. Maybe it was the water. They still laugh about how easy it was to pull all 'A's down there. Why is that?
Hold on there skippy Michigan and the Bo lineage has always cared about academics. The RR era is a different story, but BO, Moller, Carr and Hoke care.
Well Fletch, I guess that is the same as the few guys I know that go to Iowa for a Booner each year. It's just that easy up there, and it's just that easy down here As far as the topic, lets not get away from Bama paying players and recruiting thugs. I love it. There once was a time when you guys wouldn't even blink an eye at BAMA. Same as fair weather fans jumping on board, guys love to bash BAMA again and it feels good. Scott, yes he decommited from the Barn, to play DE for Saban. He was a Trooper Taylor casualty IMO, but he would not say. It's easy to use the interwebs as your friend when looking all the stats up. Heck, go to Tide Fans, and there is a thread right now celebrating Bama achieving academic Success for something big, I cannot remember what because I couldnt care less, I was trying to see how Chris Black is doing, and all that grade talk got in the way!!! Hooker, is it wrong that your crush with Bama and us Gumps turns me on, just a little. Maybe it's knowing that I cannot have you because you hate us, but at the same time we have both teabagged......so maybe there is a chance.
