Numbers started to go up for them after I left (some of it due to Holtz and Spurrier letting football players pledge, Brad Scott didn't) and all of a sudden, they're getting a house. Both the Alphas and Kappas have had several leadership positions on campus and had been more visible until the bruhs started getting their numbers up. |
The last beatdown, I heard, was over something else. Anyway, the house had little to do with the status of ZZ per se but with the fact that Omega has sone prominent bruhs in Columbia who are connected with finance and have helped guide the recent Omega administration in economic development efforts. It's a about that "mean green" and the willingness to organize to get something done. It don't matter if the last ten SGA presidents were Nupes or Alphas and they had large numbers on the yard, if the nationals aren't willing to get up off some some cash, get a loan,and bruhs on the local level organize a housing corporation, you won't have a sorority/fraternity-owned house on any Greek row. In essence, it's about leadership and taking risks.
