I'm not sure I agree 100% with your police work here with respect to the post you are responding to about the Texas system in big cities not providing the same total experience of an SEC program (e.g. lots of Frisco/Prosper kids going to Arkansas and Bama rather than go to UTSA or U of H or UTD). Of the schools you mentioned, William and Mary is unlike them all, right? like Rice or a better SMU? That's its own appeal which is narrow and is nothing like a UT/SEC college experience. From what I remember JMU and George Mason were regional safety schools for bros and B students who couldn't get into Vtech and UVA, which are the only two schools you mention that have anything like a total/full oncampus college experience with D1 sports and lots of organizations and a national name.
But seriously why does she always sound like the nyquil cough medicine is just starting to hit? Not that's drunk or addled or anything, just always a little slightly loopy and mouth-marbly. I get it, Trump communicates like a psycopath and in vocab and sentences his illiterate fans can follow, but there has to be some middle ground. I think Eli or Peyton Manning would make an unbeatable Democrat, now that I'm thinking about it.
Somehow I got added to an OpenClaw newsletter because I signed up to watch and view at some point before getting bored, I guess. Anyways, OpenAI "acquired" OpenClaw and hired the guy. Not sure if that is nerfing something you don't want out there or seeing an opportunity to further weaponze.
I don't get the appeal for Knoxville. I spent a lot of time about two years ago in Knoxville for work doing a consulting project for a big company out there. Pilot (formerly Pilot Flying J), which you see on roads as truck stops and it's unsexy industry (gas stations) but it was getting some Oracle of Omaha glow up at the time and I think I told the story of hanging out with the CEO a few times and hearing his NFL training camp stories (played a few years). All that to say, UTK holds a lot of weight in that area and that's about the only game in town from what I could see. Everyone at Pilot seemed to have a degree from UTK and most at the VP level or higher had Haslem MBA's. Oh yea, the business school was named after Haslem and various CKO's and Hackathons were hosted on the campus. That said, DFW to TYS is direct and easy and the airport out punches it weight IMO.
