What's the truth? You're playing in the 4th-best conference out of 32. You're playing at schools with solid academic reputations and a significant, successful alumni community that can help with employment opportunities. Schools with huge athletic budgets have the best in swag, facilities, trainers, and travel.

Oh, the shame we feel. Only a shitty, bitter old man could "attempt" to disparage that. Hit a nerve? The only nerve tweaked is your own. Wallow in it, brutha.
