Freshman year are big classes, the old 400 students and half will fail. Once you enter your major and the ones that got weeded out are gone, it’s about 20 kids in a class.

If only you weren’t landlocked and surrounded by meth houses


And yet your system schools hand out what 30% more diplomas than Aggies schools


You are a much larger diploma mill

All of the northern kids got wind of big football plus large Greek sysytems. Hence LSU, Bama, Tennessee and Ole Miss started to explode

Are those numbers for the MAIN CAMPUS of the schools or the entire system?


Search says...
As of Fall 2023, the University of Texas System had a total student enrollment of 256,783 students. This figure includes 192,853 undergraduates and 60,141 postgraduates.

More recent data indicates the system has grown, with preliminary data for Fall 2023 citing 257,718 students and other reports from late 2023/2024 stating enrollment exceeds 260,000 students across its academic and health institutions. The system's flagship campus, UT Austin, alone reached an all-time high of 55,000 students in Fall 2025.

I'd be curious to see what percentage pays full price.


Not many. If you parents make below a certain threshold, you basically get a full or near full scholarship. When they started doing that in the 90s, the parents income had to be $65k or less. No idea what the number is now.

I mean, you pretty much get a full ride if you graduate top 1-5% of your HS class, which isn’t hard if you are in a small school with a senior class around 300

Way too many and way too many from out of state. My freshman year, 2006, had 23,878 undergrads. Crazy how much has changed after a tornado, football dynasty, and 20 years.

What happened that has made it so vogue or cool to go to SEC schools? SEC has always had great tradition and pageantry but now everyone wants to be a part of it

But There have been dynasties outside bama and Saban. Its like people all the sudden found southern culture cool when for the majority of the countries history, people hated southern culture and identity. Most people viewed the south as stupid but now everyone wants to get educated here

Apparently over 50% of Bama students now are out of state?
I used to love seeing out of state students from the northeast or midwest think it was a good idea to have a picnic around Lake Alice on our campus. They'd end up having an unwelcome visitor (or two).

What are you talking about? There have been other dynasties in college football. What does 30 years have to do with anything

The SEC started really spending big money in the late 90's and 2000's, building massive stadiums, great facilities, etc.

The conference started being televised more which led to kids around the country wanting to be apart of that.
