This really doesn't change anything. There are less than 10 kids at my kid's top DC private who have the stats that Vandy wants and they were already applying (or in many cases-not). it doesn't matter whether the kids in the lower 90% of the class are now on the Vandy bandwagon--they're not getting in (they get rejected from our school each and every year like clockwork.)

Kids who might have ED to northwestern or Penn might pivot to Vandy.

If you want Vanderbilt, transferring in after first year is the way to go. Almost impossible to get in unhooked straight out of high school. However, we know many transfers.

You have to be a troll, Vandy’s football team is still mediocre.

Nope.
At our private Vandy was always desirable. Hard admit in RD though.

You forgot Wake Forest, Pitt, BC and NC State ND is not a member of the ACC.

Yes ND is in the ACC. I did not forget the other schools, other than Wake, I don't find them academic equivalents.

Nope, Notre Dame is not in any league, they play ACC teams in certain sports . Here’s a link so we don’t have to continue to squabble. https://www.on3.com/college/notre-dame-fighting-irish/news/heather-dinich-explains-why-notre-dame-has-no-interest-in-joining-a-conference/

Listen you idiot. ND is in the ACC. My original post said athletics, not just football. Every other sport competes in the ACC. So sit down and shut your mouth if you don't know what the hell you're yammering about.

Notre Dame is not a full member of the ACC and football is the marque sport.

No one is pivoting to Vandy because of one upset when they will still have a losing record.

Huh? You are talking less than 10 kids at a top NW private who have the grades to make this pivot. you really think the ones dreaming of Wharton for 4 years are going to pivot to Vandy over one football game? These kids have known what Vandy offers for years.

Don’t kid yourself, that “legitimate conference” would disappear in a heartbeat if Big Ten membership were offered. Stanford and Berkeley were praying to be offered by the B1G, but had to settle with the ACC.

Who are you, Trump? Insults don’t change the fact YOU are wrong. If ND was a full member of the ACC, FSU and Clemson wouldn’t be trying to exit.

I'm a living breathing human. I don't deal in "what if's" I deal in "what is" so not kidding myself. They're in the ACC.

That being said, congrats on the win! It was well-deserved.

This!

I think this theory works for the larger SEC schools, where kids would be on the fence between choosing Clemson or Auburn or UGA or USCarolina.

The students that are Vanderbilt ready or not the students that are chasing a sports team bandwagon. They may be between an ED to Duke or Vanderbilt, but a lot of these students with 4.0 unweighted and over 1500+ on the SAT are deciding between small private top 20 schools like Wash U or Emery or Northwestern or Boston College.

Haha, false. Look at USC’s rise in college rankings - it correlates pretty strongly with the Pete Carroll glory days in football. I can tell you that’s why I went there (plus half tuition scholarship offered to national merit finalists)!

Presented with facts that ND is in the ACC and you invoke Trump? You're a strange individual. There is no dispute that ND is in the ACC for athletics. None.
