this morning had no info on a timeline. He believes it's between Auburn & UM & thought it was equal as to new signees & existing players at both schools for playing time for Kozan. He also said Kozan's decision would be influenced by their business school since he is very interested in that major. Seems a no brainer on that-Ross vs. Auburn? Kozan was quoted as saying that Auburn's business school was one of the best in the country-go figure. I don't know what kind of student he is, but if he chooses Auburn, maybe he thinks he can do better in the business school at Auburn than UM. Just speculating.

Good point.
Good point.
Getting into Ross is no easy task. Zack is certainly the exception as to academics vs athletics. I can't imagine the time budgeting. I admire him for that more than BB.
Along the same lines, I remember a cornerback named Barry or Berry who had a good carrer at Ohio, I believe during the Moeller era. He was a highly rated recruit and his final three were ND, UM & Ohio. He chose Ohio and he said it was because of academics.

Yeah WOTS is that Kozan wants some kind of promise that he'll get into the Business school before he signs his LOI. Take that with a grain of salt, but it seems pretty in line with what everyone else is saying about business schools.

but Auburn's business school is not in the top 111 in Business Week's rankings (Iowa is 81, btw).

It's not even ranked. Either that quote from him was incorrect or he's terribly confused (or is getting cash money, as Auburn is accostomed to providing).

If he said he's considering
If he said he's considering Auburn because of its fine business school, he's not coming to Ann Arbor. In my career, I have hired a lot of business school graduates from Alabama colleges. Auburn is not your go to place for business school grads. Auburn has some fine programs. Business is not one of them. He's trying to justify what he wants to do. Good luck to him.
February 6th, 2012 at 2:23 PM |
Agreed
Agreed
I think if Alex has somehow convinced himself there is a comparison between the business schools at Michigan vs. Auburn, then he may very well be trying to rationalize a decision to go to Auburn. I also am from Alabama and I've never heard anyone even take Auburn's business school seriously. You'd be better off to major in economics at Birmingham-Southern than go to Auburn's business school, unless your business is dairy.
I agree with the poster who said an economics degree from Michigan would be better. It would be life-changing better. My roommate at U-M went that route, got into Ross for his MBA, and is now living in Chicago and really wealthy. The problem with Auburn is even an undergraduate degree from there is not likely to mean much if you want to go to Michigan's business school. Auburn does have some above-average programs, but it is in general a lightweight school in terms of academics, like most of the SEC schools. (Vandy and Georgia are far and away the two best academic schools in the league, though now you could add Missouri to that list, at least for some areas of study.) As for the two worst, I'd go with LSU and Mississippi State. For most of its history, LSU didn't even have admission standards beyond requiring a high school diploma. When I was working in New Orleans, every summer we'd bring in interns, and a few of them would be from LSU. We would always end up hiring a few interns, and it was never the ones from LSU. Loyola University in New Orleans, a small Jesuit-run school, is light years ahead of LSU in producing sharper graduates.
February 6th, 2012 at 4:45 PM |
Interesting

I would certainly agree with your analysis of the two top schools in the SEC academically. Of course, I got my MBA from Vandy, so I'm biased. But UGA is a very well thought of school and have known several top notch grads.Glad to hear the love for BSC. My older daughter went there with a fair amount of my earnings for four years. Have not had any experience with LSU academics. I'm honestly a bit surprised by your experience. Of course, any LSU fan who tailgates can probably have a career in the culinary world. They do know how to cook!
