We are no longer engineering for success. Are we are engineering and marketing for success. ?

Don't know, but I'm pretty sure they have better schools.

I've worked in public education my whole adult life in 3 different states: Ga, FL and Va. I've worked in the hood and I've worked in white bread world. The main difference in the quality of schools around the country is the quality of students and the parental support at home.

Not sure of the question but if u r in school and were admitted under a scholarship offer regardless of if you are being redshirted or not you count against the 85. So that means at any time. Redshirting doesnt have anything to do with it. Its admitted in school under scholarship

In essence, any school is commiting to pay for five years of a S/A's time on campus outside of a medical redshirt, right?

This is a conversation for another thread ... so I hope you get in trouble for derailing and not me ... but I'd say that's a major factor but not an automatic. Said another way, I think a group of "poor quality" students can be saved.

Most schools have scholarships as year to year, although nobody really pulls schollys for poor performance (more likely to use medicals or encourage a transfer). Once a kid is on a ship, though, they count against your 85 until they’re no longer in school. They do this because they know damn well a guy like Saban would sign kids to a first year scholarship then tell them they have to pay the rest of the way.

Students are not locked into being "low quality".

I do agree that parental support at home is the number one factor in the quality of the school and the education of its students.
But getting back to the original topic, it's great to have these connections to Pennsylvania. I didn't realize until recently that it's one of the most fertile grounds in the country for highly-rated HS football players.

That is 2 4* in 2 weeks.

We will need to learn to live with this anxiety.
