Follow me to the truth
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
