Tennessee “Bulletin Board” Material?

Has that changed? I met a bunch after I moved here 17 years ago, and they weren't all set the world on fire smart.

You can do that with just about any school out there ... I mean George Bush has a Yale degree.

has what changed? The fact that Tennessee is a pretty damn good school and very difficult to get into if you are an out of state applicant. Not sure what you are asking or what your point is, the fact that you met a bunch of Tennessee alumni that you felt weren't very smart. I have worked around Cornell for 22 years and seen some of the bigger idiots of my lifetime, doesn't mean they weren't qualified academically to get in

Tennessee-Syracuse is almost a main event - Knox TN Today

Take my word for it, football openers are not all the same. This one has a curious feel. Tennessee and Syracuse have new people in key roles. Anything could happen. High drama is possible. Few opening games are actual main events. This would be medium large if it wasn’t for Texas and Arch...

Calm down, bub. It was a legit question, and not an attempt at insult. Keep in mind, I live in Knoxville.

I didn't know if their admission criteria had changed or if they've become more comepetitive over the last 17 years. I've known a number of people outside of Tennessee that have attended UT. Enough that I didn't realize they were so selective with out of state applicants. My "set the world on fre smart" comment simply meant they didn't stand out to me.
