... shine and outpace nearly everyone but Texas. Cinci not quite as impressive as they think, and Houston lags near the back of the pack when placed within the current membership of the Big12 and graded against them.

Not exactly sure why the resolution on this spreadsheet picture is so poor compared to the others ... but you can read it at the Spreadsheet link.

At the advice of some, I added the World Rankings and did a more thourough evaluation of graduate programs than in my previous iteration that just looked at 11 Big12 candidate schools seen in tweet below.  The data pretty much show that, if BYU had a Medical School, we would instantly be the clear #2 overall school in the Big 12 academically, and maybe even rival UT.  We get dinged BIG time for the lack of a Med School and serious Biomedical research in many of the criteria I listed.  Despite all that, BYU is VERY good at what BYU chooses to do.  

One of the most impressive figures to me was how much the Average BYU grad makes over any of the other schools.  That's got to be attractive to a conference in regards to expansion, eh?
