We talking bout academics? Most of those ranking systems are pure drivel anyway. Meh.

How ironic that you would ask this question arguing that "making it their" is a huge accomplishment. Did you guys get participation trophies when you left Atlanta both times?
Continue being irrelevant..

we never said we were superior in academics in general.
we said we were better than most of the SEC.
which is like winning a cripple fight.
which we are smart enough to know.
but we will take it.
especially with our current football coach

If we're irrelevant, than what in gods name does that make you?

in case you weren't aware, there is no aspect of actual academics that goes into USNWR rankings. They are numbers based rankings that have nothing to do with research quality or teaching quality.

Keep up...I guess you missed my earlier post...
Welcome to the SEC lower tier academic club.

never claimed Kentucky or LSU degrees were superior to the other SEC schools. Seems Mizzou are a bunch of dummies like Arkie and the Mississippi schools. I welcome them to the club.

Nah, it's on par with the rest of the SEC for the most part. I thought it was per semester, not per year.

you mean, like, how its only 1 of 4 SEC schools that carry an AAU status.
Be careful there Sparky, Missouri is slipping fast and could be another Nebraska before you can say corndog
quote:
Please check in if you're vandy, TAMU or florida.
These 3 are pretty safe from AAU elimination
#31 Vanderbilt
#46 Florida
#49-#60 Texas A&M
Safe spaces if you will in the AAU world
#61 - #70 Nebraska (Lincoln) - KICKED OUT of AAU
#71 - #99 Georgia - heading up
#71 - #99 Missouri (Columbia) - heading down
#71 - #99 Tennessee (Knoxville)
#100 - #119 Louisiana State (Baton Rouge)
#100 - #119 Kentucky
#100 - #119 South Carolina (Columbia)
Just because Mizzou got in the AAU 100 years ago or so is no guarantee they will stay in during the next 10 years. Remember it was the B1G schools that got Nebraska booted out and Nebraska is in the B1G now. With Mizzou in the SEC, not sure you guys get much love with the B1G, PAC, and IVY (the ones with enough votes to get anybody kicked out).

Looking at the numbers from the National Science Foundation
#17 || 854 M || Texas A&M (huge school and PUF money)
#26 || 709 M || Florida (huge school in a big state)
#28 || 684 M || Vanderbilt (good considering small private)
#62 || 355 M || Georgia
If the AAU were started today, these SEC schools are probably charter members
#68 || 328 M || Kentucky (closest SEC school to Georgia)
#79 || 290 M || Louisiana State (slightly ahead of former AAU member Nebraska)
#88 || 237 M || Missouri (about where Free Shoes U ranks)
At best that puts Mizzou solidly in the middle with at least 6 other schools ahead of you and this before the new numbers that will be lower because of safe spaces and poop wall symbols. While this may mean you are still above the AL and MS schools in the SEC that is not saying much. Besides, at least the Alabama system in Birmingham comes in at #48.
If you keep saying you are better than most you are still stuck in the 1950's and 1960's when that might have been the case (however back then Georgia Tech and Tulane were both in the SEC, so maybe not). Nebraska and Syracuse thought that way until a few years ago, but then both lost their AAU membership.
