No.

Not even the best as far as networking in your own state.

Like hell. I know most SEC schools have loyal fan bases and would help each other out, but it is different at A&M. You can sit there and laugh about the oddness of some of the traditions and being cult-like, but what comes with that is a massive school with a massive alumni base that are very deliberate about networking with Aggies wherever you live.

Agree with the No in the first part of your answer. Florida and Georgia are pretty dang good academic schools too in the SEC. Depending on the ranking system, those three can go in about any order but none are close to the Ivy League.

But completely disagree about the networking comment. Most of my U of Texas friends freely admit the one thing A&M is better at than Texas is the alumni network. They don't even have to be drunk to admit that.
