Or maybe we don't award mediocrity, just like everyone else.

26 is mediocrity, and you were assuming we would give a free ride off a 26

A 26 at Ole Miss is well above average

It doesn't mean it deserves a full ride.

FWIW, I admit I underestimated Ole Miss. The average ACT score is somewhere between 23 and 25.

OM has had a nice surge in applications that last 5-6 years, and that number keeps rising. Therefore every year we can become more and more selective of who we let in, without raising our admission standards officially.

I mean c'mon none of us are saying we are freaking Harvard/Yale/Princeton over here but really to legitimately believe that 26 was well above the average was just dumb ... I assume you were joking anyway.

Probably a JUCO. Then you could go there, get a 4.0 at the JUCO and probably get a nice amount of scholarship money as a transfer student.

Isn't a 26 on the ACT roughly equivalent to about a 1000 on the SAT? I only took the SAT so I'm genuinely curious.

That graph McRebel posted should give you a good idea. Looks like it would be in the 1800s
