Going to Michigan Law For DAT BIG10 Football?
Poast new message in this thread
Date: May 19th, 2015 10:41 AM Author: Tantric locale Got accepted to Michigan, UVA, Duke, and UPENN STATE. Deposited at UPENN STATE, but alas, it's not THE PENN STATE FOOTBALL.
Is going to Michigan for football & experience credited?
Has had a HUGE crush on UMICH for DAT BIG HOUSE ever since high school. I was stupid enough to get duped into an IVY UG, which was a miserable craphole filled with strivers. |

Date: May 19th, 2015 10:55 AM Author: Tantric locale I agree, brother, I agree. But as a HUGE sports fan, I can't help but look back at my pathetic IVY LEAGUE FOOTBALL experience and wonder what if? Should've copped that BIG STATE U for my UG. I played multiple varsity sports in high school, so I'm not one of those 'I know nothing about athletics, but oh well, everyone else is into it!' student-fans.
Big time regrets here. |

Date: May 19th, 2015 11:00 AM Author: Tantric locale Yup, that fun and experience.
Also, why UVA? Might as well go to UMICH. UVA can't touch Michigan for athletics(I guess UVA has always had that LAX and basketball's doing pretty well, but I wonder how long that'll last). |

Date: May 19th, 2015 11:02 AM Author: Tantric locale I see. I did see Michigan go down in rankings in the recent years but didn't think it would be that big of a deal. I guess it's a bigger news than I thought in the inner circles (i.e. hiring committee).
Thanks for the input - you seem like a good dude. |

But at UVA they think it is a big deal. Also UVA is the type of place where 7-5 is reason to celebrate so you may actually have more fun that way.

i had a blast at michigan. i know it's not as good an education as i probably could have received at yale or whatever but i saw some unbelievable basketball and football, went to some chill parties, and met multiple guys who were in my wedding. i also really liked the town. and to be honest it seems like I meet a lot of people who want to talk about jim harbaugh or whatever no matter where I go across the country
i miss it very badly sometimes. very fun four years |

Date: May 19th, 2015 11:37 AM Author: Tantric locale Really jelly here, man. You did it right. I bought into the whole IVY LEAGUE hype - missed out on the best 4 years of my life chasing 'prestige.'
I should've copped that BIG STATE U at a very respectable places like Michigan or UCLA. |

NOT Cornell, by the way. |

|
|
Date: May 19th, 2015 1:10 PM Author: Tantric locale Agreed. Michigan, UVA, Berkeley are probably the top 3 public schools for academics, but Texas ain't no slouch. I'd take Texas over those 3 in a a heartbeat if I could do it over again.
UG really, really does not matter much if you're going the LS route. |

Date: May 19th, 2015 1:14 PM Author: Trip Whorehouse Idea He Suggested Its probably a wash or slight advantage to UMICH (due to football/big house)

Date: May 19th, 2015 2:14 PM Author: Cyan appetizing trump supporter Off topic, but Ivy League football isn't that bad. The crowds aren't as big, but because the Ivies are smaller schools, you actually get to know the players around campus. While I'm sure we weren't at the Big 10 or SEC level, we still had plenty of tailgate parties. The players may not be as good, but they're playing other players who also aren't so great, so you still get some very close games.

Date: May 19th, 2015 2:29 PM Author: Tantric locale Agreed, somewhat. Football is awesome - anywhere, any time. Even some good HS competitions are fun.
However, it just sounds pretty 180 seeing future NFL draftees & stars duking it out at a whole different level.
This is coming from someone who played varsity ball in HS but not quite good enough for college. Once, we played against a state powerhouse with several NFL draftees. Got crushed but still was a 180 experience playing against folks at that level.
