UVA 2010, RD Forum

Clearly, a battle between a Stanford Student and an Alabama resident will have some built in biases

Haha that's definitely true.

Also consider this: Ingram played against one Top-40 rush defense. Toby played against five Top-40 rush defenses. That should count for something.

Are you watching ESPN? Cuz Robert Smith just said the same thing. Also, Pac-10 rush defenses are ranked higher because every Pac-10 team is a Passing Team besides Stanford. The SEC is a run first team, with defensive lineman that are more talented than the defensive lineman in the Pac 10.

Haha yes I am watching ESPN (or, rather, it's on in the background) but I did know that before.

Yeah I mean neither of us is going to convince the other of anything. I admit that Ingram is the better pro prospect and the more talented player, but I think Toby deserves the Heisman because I really do think he was the best, most consistent, most valuable player in the country this year.

I think Ingram will win, but I think Toby will finish in a very close second. Unfortunately, no one cares who comes in second.

WTF people, I read through 2-3 pages of new posts since yesterday before I realized I wasn't reading the 09-10 college football thread, I was reading the UVA RD thread.

What do you think of bologna and bananas, though?

Well since UVA has like two people RD so far something has to fill this thread.

when do scholarship offers come out? That's sorta on topic.

I'm wondering if I have any chance at $, I'm not interested in BIGLAW (too old), so prospective debt will probably be the determining factor for me.

[Kronk]

Most people got them with their acceptances.

The big name scholarships come with acceptances, and the smaller non-name ones are awarded in late March.

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

My current status date just changed, but not the status itself. does that mean a decision is coming?

Term: Year: 2010

yeah, I think most of the big ones come out with the acceptance packages. LSN lists about 60 acceptances and only 8 scholarships, all of them in the 25k/yr category. Didn't know we'd have to wait until March for the rest of grant aid to be figured out.. wow, that's awhile.

Here's to a week of acceptances.

Thanks. Hopefully it was just the first of many for people today.

[likeaspark]

I'm in too!!! Complete 12/3, just got the call this morning. Can't believe I heard back so quickly! Congrats to all who hear today!

[badwithpseudonyms]

My Current Status date changed on Friday (12/11). I had been sitting at ~ 11/3 before then. I haven't been following this thread too closely since I toyed with the idea of going ED (ultimately decided against it due to those pesky considerations that exist outside the TLS mentality). So is this considered a good thing or absolutely meaningless? 166/3.9

Grats!

Hehe, it just seems that way because for the most part, people only post when something has happened. If people posted every time something didn't happen, I bet this thread would look a lot different.

Yeah, it would look a lot more like the first 100 pages of the Cornell thread.

So the fact that some people got phone calls while others got status updates and no phone calls (me) makes me think I'm getting dinged. Bummer.

Waiting for Virginia is driving me crazy. I went complete in early September, but haven't heard anything. NYU let me know before them.

Nope, not in state. Thanks much!
