Results matching “chapel hill” from Inside USC with Scott Wolf
Ann Arbor, Mich., leads Forbes magazine's Top 10 College Sports Cities in a recent report based on competitive success of university teams, the NACDA Director's Cup standings, real estate value, and quality of life.
The rest of the Top 10 cities Palo Alto, Calif., Madison, Wis., Columbia, Mo., Durham, N.C., Chapel Hill, N.C., Cambridge, Mass., Austin, Texas, San Francisco, Calif., and Bloomington, Ind.
I'm not sure how Palo Alto and San Francisco were considered seperately in this study, but I guess they didn't take into account that few people really seem to care about college sports in the Bay Area, especially compared to the 49ers and Raiders.
Uh, not quite. USC's loss to Oregon State today is different because it is debatable who really cares? As I explained two weeks ago, this is not Chapel Hill, N.C., or Lawrence, Kan., or Westwood. If it were, there would be accountability.
So the indignation will be reserved to a few die-hards and that's about it. Frankly, more people are interested in whether Randall Carroll comes to USC.
It's a good thing USC is not located in Chapel Hill, N.C., Lawrence, Kan., or even Westwood. Because if it was, people might actually care about the basketball team's four-point victory over North Dakota State or the generally shambolic play this season.
At some point there will need to be some scrutiny regarding the evaluation done for this recruiting class (I'm not referring to DeMar DeRozan in this instance) and the distribution of scholarships. Right now, USC's getting something out of one of its four new recruits (again, excluding DeRozan).
