Do yourself a favor (aside from Vanderbilt), skip out on every SEC school. Go elsewhere.

I will never understand people who say this. I could have gone to and applied to better schools but A&M, TCU and LSU were the main schools I considered because of the people I knew there and how much fun I had at those schools while visiting.

Once you get that first job out of college you learn that college is what you make of it and as long as you get a 4 year degree from a school that people recognize, you can pretty much do whatever you put your mind to (within reason).

To the OP, congrats on the college choice and buckle up, it will be the best four (or five or six) years of your life. I've been to Ole Miss and had a hell of a time so I can understand why kids are impressed and go there.

Also, there are great schools and programs in the SEC. You can get a great education at a number of schools and if you want it combined with big time football there isn't a better conference IMO, unless you want to go to school with dbag midwesterners in the Big 10.
