This will make more high stat kids want to go to colleges with big football. Why would anyone want to go to a college without B10 or SEC sports? |
ND is in the ACC, but not for football. There they are an independent. They play five games against the ACC every year, but cannot win the conference title because they aren’t full time members for this sport. They also play with Big Ten schools in hockey. If they were stuck in the ACC for football, they would have joined the Big Ten already. |
NP. This thread is about football...just sayin. |
Welp, coaches poll just came out and Vandy is nowhere to be found, nor is USC!!
Bama fell from #1 to #7. ND and LSU both had bye weeks and rose 1 and 2 spots respectively. Let's see what the AP poll says at 2. |
So you take the loss. |
The responses were to a post about athletics, not football. ND is indeed in the ACC. |
It’s two different posters? |
That was not clear at all in your post, which was on a thread about football. This is what you said: "The ACC is the only legitimate conference that has great academics and athletics." Anyone reading it (including me) would think you are continuing the conversation about football. Why you got so bent out of shape for the correction is bizarre. Take the loss? LOL |
have a junior and a sophomore at a DCUM private, often referenced here - my sophomore son was watching the bama/vandy game with me and said “wow what a cool place to go to school” and he wasn’t talking about bama. My wife rolled her eyes as she’s one of the ivy striver parents lol, and we are both ivy grads. My junior daughter sitting with friend in kitchen and said something about Vandy being a dream school for her and friends. Cornell? bleh - and I’m an alum |
Ok Vandy dad. |
"Athletics" just because you have a dearth of reading comprehension skills doesn't make you right. You have been shown proof ND is indeed in the ACC. Take the loss. |
That was a general comment about athletics that one could make while discussing football. The person who responded understandably wanted to correct you. Actually I was about to do the same until I saw the response. Your defensive tone was over the top and typical dcum. I shouldn’t be surprised. |
ok, well hope they are top 10%, preferentially top 5% in their classes. Vandy is almost impossible from DC privates. |
I should add that Cornell is a much easier admit from our DC private (per the data over the last 3 years). |
any time Cornell dad! btw vandy > cornell with every high stat kid in the US. Mom and dad jamming ivy on kids does lead to Cornell for the lower high-stat kids though |
