I can almost guarantee you the net worth of the Georgia and Ohio State alumni base dwarfs ours.
Our enrollment is larger than UGA's, a bit smaller than Ohio State's.
However that's a recent phenomenon. We've doubled in size since Saban, most of that coming from out of state students.
Hopefully that will pay dividends in terms of alumni support in the years and decades that follow.
But I would expect the enrollment to pull back some now.

I hate to be negative about the University as I'm a graduate of this fine institution (class of 2009), BUT we still graduate way too many liberal arts students. Liberal arts students, on average, make very little. We need to increase our focus on STEM degrees. We were doing really well for a while increasing our Engineering school but that has hit rock bottom since Dean Karr left to become the President of UAH.
