Look on the bright side...Big Ten football. My alma mater, for reasons unknown to even the Board, has never had a football team. It's one of the great regrets of my life that I didn't attend a college with a football team. For realzie.

Does it matter? The whole concept is just preying on 0L arrogance and ignorance. Gross.

Scholarship stipulations (above like "good academic standing") are already TTT. A top 1/3 stip? Heinously TTT.

i agree that top 1/3 scholarship caters to the "i'm a special snowflake and will profit cuz i'm the exception" mentality and it's pretty TTT. I think right around exam times, people just pray (&prey) for median, much less top third.

Again, Big Ten football. Basketball games just don't have the same vibe. Who tailgates for a basketball game? Exactly.

I'm guessing from your username that you went to Virginia and that ACC bash is some sort of self loathing? Mike London is turning that program around. It's certainly improved from the Al Groh years, no?

It could be a lot worse. Below top-3rd should probably drop out after 1L anyway there, so why not roll the dice if the first year is free?
