I have no real ox to gore in this but I really see virtually no difference between WVU's academics and MO or Nebraska's. I just cannot image either Pitt, Syracuse or Rutgers even being remotely considered for entrance. They simply do not draw and do not travel well. Maybe Iowa State but only because Iowa's is already there and ready made as a rival. Of course, Notre Dame is the only real fit. In the end it will be about athletics and $$$ and not about academics.
