Only GT runs with the big dogs when is comes to pay in this state.

GSU's location facilitated the need in a booming city for all the transplants to get masters and doctorates good for them. How that makes them "not fit" (by some not all of course) when their quality of undergrad is sub par to others in this conference is beyond me.

See, you were SO CLOSE to having a pretty reasonable post, and then you had to get in an unnecessary jab.

I'm guessing you're still hung up on mean SAT scores...? And that's what makes the quality of our undergrad "sub par to others in this conference" (which is a really strangely worded comparison, by the way)?

You're right it probably makes little difference to athletics. But hey, here's something which during this long summer GSU fans can boast about, so there's that. But if you take a look at the AAC board, one of the reasons their fans don't want a look at Southern is their low academic standing. We might not have all of the things we need done in line yet to progress to higher things, but academically were in the mix with AAC schools

Also, regarding sub par undergrads; I think I've done a pretty good job citing everything I've said on here, so I'd love to ask the same as you. But I'm thinking your assumption of our subpar undergrads is completely based on your saltiness rather than any formal rankings. The fact that our University is ranked and yours isn't should probably put this whole academic debate to rest.

Edit: a quick glimpse at US News and World Report shows that we have more ranked undergraduate programs than Georgia Southern. So there is pretty much zero evidence that we somehow have a sub par undergraduate program and apparently that it's better than Southern's (so I suppose if ours is bad, Southern's is worse)

Edit 2:
Looking again at USNWR, GSU actually has more undergraduate rankings than any other Sun Belt team. I'm not saying this to make us seem superior or anyone seem inferior, just to show that your statement came directly from your arse

The quality of your undergraduate students entering your mecca of academia has been at best equal to GS and or often sub par some years and probably many others in this conference. Not debating once you graduate IF you want to live close enough to attend GSU that your postgraduate options are vastly better but that is it. All your post grad accolades and any other rankings fail to show up in any significant way on your undergrads pay checks. It also has failed miserably to provide one bit of benefit to athletics. Which is sad since your undergrad pop and alum base is significantly higher and larger than some in this conference. You are not Vandy, you are not even GT you are not considered an elite academic institution as a whole. Your constant top heavy post grad academic boasting is full of sound and fury signifying...NOTHING. Again congrats on being in located in an area where all those transplants that graduated from other schools created a demand for a decent post grad program in the area. To bad all those post graduates can't seem to find their wallets or your athletic venues once they graduate....

See I think you're confused; you know incoming students are people that haven't yet gotten an education at Georgia State right? As I've shown above, it would appear that our undergraduate programs are better than Georgia Southern's, and so what that means is that all those students with those good SAT scores that go to Georgia Southern actually get a worse education than those students with slightly lower SAT scores at GSU. Maybe someone should tell those kids considering Southern not to settle for less...

You know, I counted where GSU ranks on that global ranking score compared to other universities in the US. We came in at 133. I was going to do the same for Georgia Southern, but you weren't on on that list. There are 750 schools on that list, and Southern can't even make it into it. And yet this guy wants to say GSU is sub par.

Not debating once you graduate IF you want to live close enough to attend GSU that your postgraduate options are vastly better but that is it. All your post grad accolades and any other rankings fail to show up in any significant way on your undergrads pay checks. It also has failed miserably to provide one bit of benefit to athletics. Which is sad since your undergrad pop and alum base is significantly higher and larger than some in this conference. You are not Vandy, you are not even GT you are not considered an elite academic institution as a whole. Your constant top heavy post grad academic boasting is full of sound and fury signifying...NOTHING. Again congrats on being in located in an area where all those transplants that graduated from other schools created a demand for a decent post grad program in the area. To bad all those post graduates can't seem to find their wallets or your athletic venues once they graduate....

Let me know when you get your invite from the Ivy League...

See I think you're confused; you know incoming students are people that haven't yet gotten an education at Georgia State right? As I've shown above, it would appear that our undergraduate programs are better than Georgia Southern's, and so what that means is that all those students with those good SAT scores that go to Georgia Southern actually get a worse education than those students with slightly lower SAT scores at GSU. Maybe someone should tell those kids considering Southern not to settle for less...

Yes and they get the same jobs making the same money.......crazy. BUT they pay more to attend GSU....Someone should tell them what ROI means.

See I'm gonna need some citations. You've already been proven too make things up in this thread

Did you actually look at the rankings? lol

Academic dick measuring contest on a sports board. Just shut up.

I am sorry, but the Naval academy is the best school on the list. Don't know how it is ranked last. The Naval Academy and West Point are the two best schools in the nation.
