Oh, the irony here. Full disclosure, I went to UA and have no regrets/great education. It IS what YOU make of it - any school. I don't begrudge the kid for stating he has higher aspirations, but the fact that he apparently did NO research whatsoever is frustrating, once he says all this in an open forum. He's an advertising major. Wanna take a guess at who has the #1 Advertising/PR program in the US? Bama. Wanna take a look at APR? Graduation rates among players? (OU is almost last in the PAC12, btw) SAT/ACT scores for students at each univ? UA is ahead of Oregon in each of those. Sounds like he's repeating what the recruiters told him, then shied away from both on-field AND off-field competition, choosing a "guaranteed job" instead of working hard/becoming successful at both. Not to mention the condescending tone he gives off, whilst using his words incorrectly. Best of luck to you, KT. Hope you graduate one day from... somewhere.
