We have been slipping in the ratings since we got rid of the woke BS.


LSU has done the same thing over the last year, but we slipped steadily the entire time that fricking Alexander was in charge.

There’s a reason why earnings potential is only 5% of the weight for their rankings.

My wife turned down Vanderbilt to attend Ole Miss, back in the day.

My oldest kid turned down Florida to attend Ole Miss this year.

My family is doing what we can to boost the academic standing of Ole Miss

I think there's a real chance Texas state surpasses tech in public school academics

I have mixed feelings on this.

First, there's a good education to be found anywhere if you're willing to find it.

Also, a lot of these rankings are based on selectivity. How selective should a university be that's supported by state tax dollars? I'm in the camp that if you're from the state, and you've got at least a reasonable chance of success, you should be able to sign up and take your shot.

These rankings are so dumb. If you do stem at any one of these schools your income is going to be about the same as a stem major from an Ivy. Somehow the laws of science and math don’t change from university to university. If you do liberal arts, your earning potential will be significantly less than an Ivy with the exception of maybe Vandy.

I agree. I’ve worked with extremely bright and capable people from many SEC schools so far in my career. These rankings are always ridiculous
