Message: [QUOTE="orangecuse, post: 2644338, member: 668"] With all due respect, academics may not mean much/as much to SEC level recruits as most of them are relatively top tier with better chances of making it to the NFL, etc. The type of recruits we typically get, of course have aspirations of playing in the NFL, but realistically they aren't going to get there. Obviously, there are exceptions. Therefore, I think it's why Dino pitches academics when he's out there selling/recruiting for SU, it does matter to many of our recruits, so with BC being ranked considerably higher academically, we don't need to fall behind them from a facilities standpoint. I'm not implying that we have, but if you're comparing apples to apples relative to the football practice facility, it appears, at least from a perception standpoint, certainly more impactful. The difference in the price tag speaks for itself, as it usually does when it comes down to it. [/QUOTE]
