Duke has the 6k/undergraduates and a really small alumni network... If you want to be recognized for the rest of your life, Michigan is the place.

I appreciate the sentiment, but I have a feeling that 6'10" millionaire NBA players don't need a lot of help in the "getting recognized" department.

Assuming that's what ends up happening, of course.

I am at the home office computer, beer in hand, harness adjusted in the event I need to buckle up.

Michigan has bumpy cupcakes (at Cupcake Station).  I don't think they have those below the Mason-Dixon line.

Cupcake Station is willing to mail cupcakes via USPS Priority Mail to other states.  But they wouldn't be as fresh.
