[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Chicago stopped playing big time sports because it rightly decided serious academics and high level athletic commitment in high revenue sports was compatible.

Tell that to Michigan and Stanford.[/quote]

Only Stanford is truly serious about academics and they never threaten the powers of basketball and football. Stanford excels at non revenue sports.[/quote]

Really? Michigan and Stanford are peer academic institutions. Also, while Stanford football isn't Alabama, it's no slouch, either. Andrew Luck, Christian McCaffrey, Bryce Love, etc.

Michigan is nowhere close to Stanford.  They care too much about football and it requires graduating too many unprepared for college kids to keep it going .

Not serious academically .[/quote]

Stanford might be ranked higher in many cases than Michigan, but to say Michigan isn't a serious academic institution is utterly absurd.

Michigan's average USNWR dept ranking is 9. They have 4 number 1 departments, and 17 top 10 departments.

You have no clue what you're talking about. [/quote]

Pretty easy for dozens of people to graduate every year that came in with low SATs and work on their sport full time. Must be a very easy school with easy tests and grading.[/quote]
