  1. I get the sentiment, but that's not the goal of a college education nor should it be. Thankfully, there's more to life than finance and tech. Lots of people have different callings and there are lots of decent jobs out there in lots of decent areas. I can't afford a White Lotus vacation but have been happy doing the work I do and making the tradeoffs I have made. Also, I've been able to get my kids through college and grad school without debt, so that's a win in life. All that said, yeah, it's still Ole Miss, a provincial backwater of an institution still gripped by a racist past, though they are growing their Texas network.
  2. I've got a good friend who is a UT grad (MD) and met his wife (JD) on campus. They fully expected their kids to go to UT. All three went to Ole Miss. They had respectable if not top tier SATs but didn't grind through high school to have the stellar GPAs. Ole Miss made them all a good deal and once the first one went, it was easy for the next two. I think it's fairly well known those schools are targeting upper-middle class Texas kids thinking it will build their future alumni donor base beyond the Juniors and Bobby Sues in their own state.
  3. Where does chicken fried steak fit?
  4. That's a fun basketball conference, Oregon State will continue to make some CWS appearances, and the PAC will have at least one bowl win over some "name" from the SEC or BIG.
  5. "Who you are some of the time is who you are all of the time." --Steve Sarkisian (and others)
  6. Just watched James Johnson's highlights and yeah, he'd be a good get. It's hard to watch linemen on the shitty high school video from 30,000 feet away, but as soon as the play starts you know exactly where he lined up because the offensive lineman nearest him is going backward.
  7. It's good to be in a place where it doesn't really matter who the first off the bus happens to be.
  8. Good to know we are doing sand work in the sand. This is cutting edge stuff and the staff continues to impress.
  9. RBs, particularly FR/Sophs who aren't starting, should also be key contributors on special teams. Miss out on a year and those positions need to be filled by someone else on the team.
  10. What's he doing in finance? String relationships belong in physics.
  11. Or, he’s saying it’s his last visit and the process is over with a decision to come. Right? Right?
  12. We backed off. Have a 3-star from the Valley that we like more and wants to be here.
  13. It goes like this with standards being lowered at each age with the first real drop in mid-20s and perhaps the biggest drop coming around 40-50: Grades 1-6: only attracted to the best of your age. Grades 7-8: the best grade 7-8 girls High School: the best high school girls with occasional looks at the quirky ones who will give you a blowjob College: ages 18-22 with a little more interest in freaks Age 23-30: 18-35 quirky/freak ratio is diminishing but standards are also being lowered as you start to squint at sevens Ages 30-40: 18-45 any female that's a six or up is good to go Ages 40-50: 18-55 Same as previous age, but a bigger range Ages 50-60: 18-40 are nice to look at, but only seriously looking at 40-65 (unless rich enough to pull younger) Ages 60-70: Lots of looking at 18-50, settling for anyone under 65 who is not yet a plus size and seems like they have the patience for Viagra to kick in. Ages 70-80: Not sure. I'll update this post when I get there, but it seems like it'll be mostly memories by then. Caveat: for this scale, marriage increases your age by at least 10 years.
