By the way here are my daughters criteria for looking at schools. I don't necessarily agree with them.
1. Good football program
2. Good basketball program
3. Good Greek system
She is 17. I didn't necessarily have different ideas as a 17 year old. The sorority I initially wanted to join at my university I picked because they had the prettiest house. Go figure!~

In my case, being able to continue to ride horses at the school that I was attending was #1. So I went to the University of Kentucky. I did not know anything about the basketball program; and had to learn about that while I was there.
