I don't know the history of their admissions but assuming most of those posters are older, was scUM more selective/prestigious back in the day (70's or 80's)?

Not really. I think the only time that they truly had a significant amount of students with Harvard-Yale type stats was way back in the day when the Ivies had quotas on Jews, so you had a lot of Jewish kids from the NE and Chicago who would end up at tsun. I think that history also explains why tsun seems to be put on such a pedestal within the Jewish community. It's an admirable history but really has nothing to do with modern day realities.

I mean we have a decent amount of kids with Ivy level stats. Last year's incoming Honors class was about 1100 kids with a middle 50% ACT range of 32-34 and an average class rank of the 97th percentile. That's roughly equal in quality and size to the freshman class at Dartmouth. We just don't use it to act like a bunch of pompous asses and pretend every single freshman turned down Dartmouth to come to Ohio State.

I think it's a little deeper than that. If you grow up in a family that loves MSU and hates Michigan, going to Notre Dame or Ohio State might be a more palatable option than picking U of M.

I've never met or heard of someone who likes Cincinnati and hates OSU. I'm sure that person exists, but I'm also sure it's in a smaller number than what you see in Michigan between UM/MSU.

P.S. Imagine no MSU existed, and "the place to be" in Michigan was the University of Michigan. There would be no "Michigan State legacies" who weren't an option at all. There would be no allegiances to any other P5 university, only MAC programs. There are people like Cody White, Malik McDowell, the Bullough brothers, Kenny Willekes, Tyriq Thompson, Antjuan Simmons, who would find their way to Michigan's campus in some way, shape, or form (scholarship, grayshirt, walk-on, etc.).

The bold.... lol

Reading this thread has been diverting...especially when they try to convince themselves the only way they'll compete at an elite level is to get the best players in Connecticut and Massachusetts :lol: :rofl:

Yep, keep "trusting the coaches" en route to 4 and 5 loss seasons while staring down the barrel of your 16th straight season without a conference championship. But, hey, you do have that division "co-championship"! :lol:

What a long-winded way of saying rich white kids are morally superior to poor black kids. What a piece of shit

Dipshit has therefore never met anyone that likes Cincinnati. Not one ever.

The Massachusettes [sic] example brings up an interesting point and led me to this conclusion: UM's culture doesn't always match the culture of the top in-state talent.

Our culture meshes better with east coast and a certain type of wholesome midwest kid.

Ohio State's culture better aligns with the culture of the talent that surrounds them.

Sure, that comment is offensive, but it's also wrong.

Steve Wiltfong, National Director of Recruiting for 247, has been very complimentary of Ohio State's culture, comparing it favorably to Notre Dame and Stanford. Matty Dudek can spout shit about their players being "good enough to play in the SEC, smart enough to go to the Ivy League", but Ohio State is the school that's actually signing that kind of player (Jordan Fuller, Justin Fields, Harry Miller, Zach Harrison, Garrett Wilson, Paris Johnson, Kourt Williams, etc.).
