BuzzerBeater Forums

When is the last time Georgia won the NC? I believe Tech won it in 1990? Georgia hasn't won it since then...

hmm decisions decisions

Just apply for the Buzzerbeater scholarship. You just have to prove that you're willing to waste a lot of time on the BuzzerBeater forums and agree throw every game against any BBs.

Oh wait, that only gives you free supporter for a year. Still, that's $40 off your school!

Decisions....

Interesting. My mom was from South Georgia so I spent a lot of time growing up there. I know live and raise my family in California. Georgia and California are two different worlds, where priorities are different, each has its benefit but the key is to understand what is the norm. Going from CA to GA will be culture shock.....

Yep

You are awesome. It is definitely a culture shock it's kinda surreal, but people you meet in georgia and in california surprise you sometimes.

I think that the athletics program is a really dumb metric to base such an important decision on.

You mentioned earlier that you are transferring back into the state for financial reasons. That's smart, but why are you not using finances to help make your decision? Finding the program that will academically prepare you for your career is a much wiser decision--no matter what field you are in. Take a look at the state of the economy right now-- it is awful. The unemployment rate for youth ages 16-24 is around 18%. The underemployment rate for youth is much higher.

Take a look at this article on the affects of under/un-employment in the early stages of your career. Then tell me that you shouldn't be doing everything possible to position yourself for the best job possible.

So, how do you judge a university by it's merit? Call some professors in the department you want to join. Investigate hands-on training programs that are integrated into the degree. Ask about class size-- maybe you will sit in a 400 person lecture hall, but will you get individualized attention when you need it?

I wish you the best in your search, but athletics is not the way to judge a university.
