It is truly sad to see many of our best posters come on here and try to pretend that we should be ok with our best players leaving to go to other schools. This system sucks and will ultimately kill college sports and I refuse to adjust my views on it,

Assuming he graduates from Michigan. He IS a graduate of UNT.

Sure but they folded up like spineless cowards.

Mark Witte was also drafted....

I like it...only thing is, wish I'd thought of it!

No, I agree with everything you stated up to that point. We cannot support HOF for players who voluntarily choose to leave. What next, will we start enshrining players from other teams to our HOF? Rubin will forever be considered a Michigan graduate in his professional career.

I hate to see him leave, but, I want him to be able to do whatever he believes is best for him and his family. He has contributed immensely to our program for several seasons, accomplished so much, and I am extremely grateful for his endeavors. I hope Michigan is opening the bank vault for him. And, like others before him, he graduated prior to transferring. He stayed here for the duration of his undergraduate career and I believe should be eligible for HOF consideration.

Alternate cheer?

They didn’t shut themselves down. The University of Alabama board did (hence my tongue in cheek post). They didn’t have a say - big Alabama tried to kill them.

AAC board. Some people were posting about it. I'm referring to Davis btw. They also said Goldin had some trouble too, but he was a grad transfer which are easier to let in.

6’3” 290 lbs originally from Katy Taylor HS. Originally signed with Lamar in ‘21 before transferring to Arkansas State. Offered per X/Twitter For some reason, can’t copy and paste anything on my phone.

Did someone say Cornell?

Sadly. I actually worked with Louis Haynes when he died due to ALS. Great guy and so very sad to watch him go through that horrible disease. I didn’t realize Tony Elliot had passed until I looked him up. Equally sad but for other reasons. He overcame a lot to accomplish what he did.

Jazz studies.

graduate school at north Texas from Cornell??? what program does north Texas has that is better than Cornell?

I guess mathematically the Nevada loss was bigger but that Portland State loss was beyond words bad.

Ivy League guy from Cornell

Yes and they are both deceased

Nebraska had their AAU designation removed for non-academic reasons. AAU criteria requires that the colleges that qualify the university for AAU membership all be in the same market. It was later pointed out that Nebraska's medical school is in Omaha, and their AAU membership was rescinded. The UNT law school and the UNT medical school are considered to be in the same metropolitan area as the flagship campus. North Texas needs to keep raising the research budget until it's in the top third of R1 schools. It will probably take another decade to accomplish but the school is well on track as it's already mid-R1 for research spending. Texas needs more AAU level colleges as UT, A&M, and Rice are the only members. UH and Tech have both already met the AAU research investment criteria and should soon, like USF has been, be recognized with that distinction.

Going back to the original title of this thread, I say: "It's about time."
