They're a terribly competitive school and some girls are already heavily being recruited in the fall, I hate to see that they're going online because I feel like some houses and some girls just won't have a chance. In person recruitment is hard enough, virtual is brutal and there's no real way to gauge a person over a screen, much less an entire sorority. Alabama and Ole Miss are competitive but I truly believe that rushing at SMU is an entirely different league, especially since rush happens during second semester.

Was UT virtual this year?
