Oh, I didn't explain myself well. I read your post, but it came out all huffy. I should have checked your profile before saying anything because I honestly saw that you are in Chicago and thought to myself "What the heck does she know about the SEC?" The noob learns a GC lesson - you know, the one about assuming.
What I was trying to express were mainly these things:
1. Students from Georgia (at least the hundreds that I worked with over the past decade) are/have been pursuing Tennessee along with Auburn & Alabama since UGA became more competitive due to the Hope Scholarship.
2. Since Tennessee began offering the Hope Scholarship a few years ago, it has become more competitive academically a la UGA, which has led to slightly smaller PNM groups and quotas. When I was at UT, there were 15 NPC groups. Now there are 13.
3. Because UT is becoming more competitive academically due to the Hope Scholarship, it really isn't going to be as viable an option for those students who are seeking an SEC-like experience but may not be able to get into UGA.
OK....really this was all off the original topic anyway, so 'nuff said.
More bid lists, please. Monmouth Duo love, dear Barbino!
