Conference realignment "Rumors" "tweets" "etc"

So, it was definitely a, "directional" school.

Wouldnt the politicians get involved to make sure both UCF and USF get invited? It seems they the politicians got involved with Va Tech getting into ACC joining Virginia. 

 

Nope, the legislature is dominated by UF and FSU grads, and to a much smaller extent a few FAMU grads.

USC was founded in 1880, there was no, "Southern California" culture at that time.

 

 

History

Los Angeles was a rough-and-tumble frontier town in the early 1870s, when a group of public-spirited citizens led by Judge Robert Maclay Widney first dreamed of establishing a university in the region. It took nearly a decade for this vision to become a reality, but in 1879 Widney formed a board of trustees and secured a donation of 308 lots of land from three prominent members of the community – Ozro W. Childs, a Protestant horticulturist; former California governor John G. Downey, an Irish-Catholic pharmacist and businessman; and Isaias W. Hellman, a German-Jewish banker and philanthropist. The gift provided land for a campus as well as a source of endowment, the seeds of financial support for the nascent institution.

When USC first opened its doors to 53 students and 10 teachers in 1880, the “city†still lacked paved streets, electric lights, telephones and a reliable fire alarm system. Today, USC is home to more than 33,000 students and nearly 3,200 full-time faculty, and is located in the heart of one of the biggest metropolises in the world.

That settles it for me.  I would agree then that it is a direction school.

To help our efforts, we must make sure Bill Young, Jr. is elected to the state house, he's a HUGE Bull and is a bright guy.

Sure.  If you believe in creationism, then the chicken came first, because that's how God made her.  If you believe in evolution, then the egg came first, because the modern chicken was a mutation of a different species.

Yeah, here is the crazy thing ... USC most powerful directional school. USF second most powerful directional school (arguably). Look at the gap between #1 and #2. USC is sort of the exception that proves the rule.
