The reaction by PSU students to these sanctions is proof that non-student athletes DO

I was going to an HBCU regardless, so can't say that sports teams had anything to do with my initial college choice.

I transferred to The Ohio State University later, even though that didn't have anything to do with sports either, moreso the fact that it is the only respectable thing about that state.

But I can say that at least 65% of the kids I ran into there one of the biggest things playing into them going there was the football squad/sports reputation. And now living in the Raleigh area, I can see how big of a deal sports teams are to the enrollment at Duke and UNC.

you gotta be smart as hell to get into those tho. at some of these schools they'll let anybody in :youngsabo:

Miami is actually believable. Private school, south beach....

This schools like Penn St and Ohio St...yeah those kids are there for the team.

(even though I believe PSU is pretty competitive academically)
Ohio State and Penn State are pretty much on the same level when it comes to academics. Last I saw, they were separated by less than 10 spots when it comes to college rankings. Miami is a little above both of them, though.

Honestly, as a nikka who went to a mediocre high school i have to say the only way i heard of your school is if you had a good sports program or if you sent some shyt directly to my house. Other than that i didnt know the school existed. Hopefully when i have kids ill be able to introduce them to a lot more options than i had.

Winning means all, look at tcu and Oregon or Boise, you think of they were new Mexico state status their enrollment would have increase?

Even crummy buffalo university when they reached d1 status their enrollment went up and when they won their first Mac title it went up a little more

Shout out to loose

no disrespect, but you being Canadian is showing here. You have no idea about this convo.

Those schools you mentioned public state schools (except TCU) which will always have big enrollment. If you want to use this argument, look at smaller private schools.

and TCU isnt ever going to have big time enrollment.

She goes BUCKWILD when people confuse that to going to Penn State.



I went to Wharton. Yeah kids take that NOT PENN STATE shyt serious, I never really cared that much. There's even an inner rivalry between the schools.....Wharton vs College. Ivy League kids just tend to look down on everyone they don't see on their level.

you do know that Boise St. and NM st. are pretty much equal in terms of enrollment right?

FIU has one of the largest enrollments in the nation, and their football team was asscheeks in the most asscheeks conference in FBS football.

winning aint everything, but it does help your school market itself

If I had gone I would have gone to the school on who had the baddest bytches over anything.

and this is why you're probably asking people if they want fries now...

that's straight up disrespectful to yourself and shows you're a clown

you goto school to get a degree and further your education / career, there's plenty of time for getting women after you get your education squared away, lames like you that don't take school serious, end up thinking shoulda woulda coulda when more times than not, they / you dont amount to shyt because you never applied yourself

I make more in a month then you do in a year.
I didn't have to go to school because I've been in online marketing for over a decade and software development.

unless you're an athlete. :pachaha:

UNC got that African American Studies shyt the athletes use. They in big trouble over that shyt right now since you had cats getting degrees that didn't even goto class. :laff:

Duke got some bullshyt sociology the football players take. You still need somewhat of a brain to get in there though since it's private.
