Message: [QUOTE="sufandu, post: 672931, member: 874"] Yeah, and they're not even the best in the SEC, especially since so many of their athletic facilities are separated from the rest of the campus by a lot of really ugly city. My wife and I visited some friends that live in Columbia over Memorial Day weekend. They're alumni of USC and so I got a tour of the campus and city. As someone that plans on moving from Knoxville to somewhere in the Carolinas in about 5 years it took me no more than 5 minutes to decide Columbia, SC is not in the running. If SU can use the infusion of ACC money to upgrade facilities, they'll at least be able to start grabbing more of the better prospects in the northeast. We'll never be able to get the highest rated southern kids. There are too many well funded public schools in the south, and there's too much southern football pride to let them get away. [/QUOTE]
