Football brings the visability and PR necessary to attract the interest of more academically high quality students. These student raise the academic quality of the school. Hence, not a bad topic on the football board.ReedFrawg wrote:+1GiddyUp wrote:why is this on the football board?

An area of expertise for which SMU has become so well known. After all,
who could possibly challenge the athletic endeavors of an entire program
whose lengthy familiarity with underachievement has now become a byword?
