help Texas and OU make more money? That's the only question that needs to be answered if you're trying to get yourself into the conference.

We can't beat anyone on research dollars.

It's common knowledge that the Big 12's main criteria is

k-ace

5/18/16 2:26pm

Don't forget "diversity and inclusion." Mucho importante!

TechTexan

5/18/16 4:53pm

Yeah ... Exactly. Cherry picking big time. Big12 knows what's up. Google could

BamaCoug

If they are seriously considering CSU then I think that's the best news I've

riboflavin

5/18/16 2:32pm

I like how they can't find any data on us for half of their criteria

Harrison0Yfan

5/18/16 3:27pm

tell that to Texas

digitalayon

5/18/16 3:54pm

Ha! "Research spending per tenured or tenure-track faculty." 😂😂😂

BamaCoug

5/18/16 2:32pm

I hate how research and academics are measured this way. As if spending MORE $$$

And yet US News ranks us #66 and them #127 in national universities.

CSU's pitch pointed out they are 58th among public universities per US News.

IMHO if CSU gets in, we get in. It tells me one of two things:

Balloon

5/18/16 2:42pm

Percent alumni donors could take into account someone who donated $5

boss

5/18/16 2:49pm

my law school actively pitched that too us even when i was in school.

riboflavin

5/18/16 2:52pm

Every school pitches that idea.

Six Foot Seven

5/18/16 2:55pm

yeah, i know i just thought it was funny that they couched it in those terms.

riboflavin

5/18/16 3:34pm

All alumni tithe payers could be considered donors

mudpupper

5/18/16 3:07pm

FTFY: All tithe payers *should* be considered donors

AggieWeekendCougar

meh. tithes really only support athletics in a round about way.

this is like when Thomas Cooley law school ranks itself #2 (after Harvard) based

How long did you spend on this? Lol

Not long.

Well done.

That is sad if that is the best they can do

They don't even stand out in their self-selected stats.

Typical CSU - a day late and a dollar short.

What's wrong with cherry picking? It's called, "putting your best foot forward".

Marking Time

5/19/16 5:40am

Vast majority aren't mocking the fact that they cherry picked data

Six Foot Seven

5/19/16 6:11am

Data is irrelevant. Yeah, I'm sure the Pac 12 and B1G don't care about research.

All P5s would take ND in a heartbeat despite not being AAU or R1. Bluff called!
