Do you ever make a comment that isn't about UGA??

Anyway, as multiple people have pointed out, UGA was founded in 1785. Thread is a huge fail.

But didn’t have a graduate until 1804? And this is about when they opened their doors so which is it? Didn’t open til 1799ish or opened in the 1780s but failed to graduate anyone until the early 1800s?

UT was open as Blount and holding classes in the faculty’s homes from day one. A functional institution of higher learning.

Maybe Bennett is taking courses while at rehab and will get his degree is 15-20 years like you believe that 1st class did.

Which University started playing football first?

Kentucky in 1881. Then they didn't play again until 1891. Mizzou and Vanderbilt started in 1890. They have the longest continuous run.
