If Adams is concerned about academics why would he choose Auburn?
Feb 4, 2013, 10:12 PM

I hear the rumor that he's going to Auburn but don't get it if he really cares about academics. Auburn has one of the lowest academic rankings in the SEC and is well below Clemson.

These players aren't looking to be scholars most of the time

when they speak "academics" - it generally means they hit it off with an academic counselor, or their program of study has a good success rate at whatever school they are looking at - or they love the academic center at that school.

yes, yes Tymick1 we all know how academics work at SCU….
Feb 4, 2013, 10:28 PM

If it's not a degree in the medical field or a degree in international business, a degree from SCU is worth as much as a GED. You can get into SCU, and I'm talking about regular students, with a High School GPA of 2.0. SCU will accept any dunce to fill up their class quotas, in order to give the appearance of being a "Major University."
Academics, the wrong subject for any coot to speak on.

I'll ignore it and try to talk to people that want to discuss things rationally.

I'm quite rational.

I don't buy into multiple conspiracy theories at one time- and I know that does make me irrational to most.

I am sure you do

but reality is that South Carolina and Clemson's "SAT score" averages are very close- and we can all point to a some students here and there that don't deserve to be in almost every college.
I know students at Clemson who are there because of what their daddy does.
We all know deals like that.

"close"

Only a fifth place ring school would say that. List these students admitted to Clemson or you are just lying.

He specifically mentioned academics and seems smart enough

To know the NFL doesn't last forever. Clemson has much higher graduation rates, freshman retention and smaller classes.

Auburn is basically Clemson without a lake. Even has the same clock tower.
Auburn ranked #89 national university, #37 public Clemson ranked #68 national, #25 public but has been higher
Architecture is pretty good, actually very good. Engineering is decent.
