[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If they are spending that much time talking about UVA, well, that’s pathetic. UVA is still UVA and very , very few people would be at UMBC if they could get in to UVA. I get it as a one minute rah rah point, but...grow up.[/quote] It doesn’t sound like that was the message. Reality is that UMBC got a lot of press for their win in the tournament. There are stats out there that show that kind of press and profile results in more interest and applications at a school. Probably why the day was so crowded. If you read UMBCs twitter feed during the tournament (which was pretty entertaining) you will see they emphasized the academics of the school. Neither of my kids were interested in even UMD, much less UMBC, but I give UMBC a lot of credit for what they’ve built. [/quote]
