For why does a national brand like the capstone need to slum with billboards?

They've been doing that for years. Tons of kids from Houston and Dallas at Alabama.

I would like to see SEC billboards added across PAC 12 cities FWIW.

I took a distance education course from Bama. Does mean I'm officially not a sidewalker of the University?

I bet there's an ad for Costa del Mar on the other side.

Well, there was that one billboard some LSU fans put up a few blocks from the Coliseum in LA.

But it wasn't SEC specific...

This is probably a temporary billboard for the next month leading up to and after the game there. I doubt these start springing up all over the place.

CBS provides a set limit of free advertising in all mediums to each school per TV contracts. Doubt UA paid for it.

Bama has a lot of students from Dallas. UA has recruited students very well from that area.

THIS THIS THIS. In state tuition is 5k/semester. I believe out of state tuition is 10-15k/semester.

They know there are a lot of jilted UT/UTx people with money.

Over half of the students now at Alabama are out of state students.

There's a decent amount, my pledge brother was from DFW.

Anybody else notice that UA has a lot of students from Maryland?
