There you go again with those irritating facts that fly in the face those who tell us that universities are nothing but sports programs.

RE: For those of you that still think it's about academics
As someone who used to handle grant money for a university in the state, people have NO idea. The state of Tennessee has underfunded higher education for ever, and that underfunding has cost the state billions of dollars in research funding over the years. Our elected officials are idiots. But hey, they saved a couple million, right, impressed their constituents, got reelected.

The citizens of Tennessee deserve what they get. Stupidity should be punished.

Yep...there's no excuse for a state with our population and resources to NOT have at least 3 Tier 1 universities. This state's approach to education is bassackwards.
