If you’re Jimmy and you’re trying to go toe to toe with Stanford and Notre Dame on academics, you’re doing it wrong. UW is a great school, but that’s the wrong game to play.
The people on Dawgman who legitimately try to act like UW is the same level academically as ND, Cal, or Stanford because they saw UW was a top ten university on some bullshit ranking are the absolute worst. UW is a good school, but the doogs think it’s the same tier as an Ivy. Spoiler, it’s not.

Academic smack talk is traditionally reserved for those fanboys that didn’t attend the university which they do proudly point to on the latest US News & WR college and university rankings issue.

Stanford and Cal? Sure.
Notre Dame? We shouldn’t be losing to them on the basis of academics.
Prestige in anything is worth something. Stanford pulling recruits who could have gone anywhere proves that academics, or at least academic prestige, matters to some of them. They don't choose Stanford over any top 20-30 program because of football anymore.
UWs mistake is trying to take a piece of that. Brag about academic rankings to enough kids, and the ones who are actually interested in that are bound to do their own homework. What they find out is going to hurt UW more often than not.

Quite frankly, I would send my kid to USC or UCLA. I went to UW for 5 years. Nothing special. When I see these school rankings I laugh when I see UW ranked that high.

Stanford has been his dream school for two and a half years. Hard to beat that.
Our staff and administration doesn’t give a fuck.
Why do we?
No other place I can go and say fucked up shit and not be shunned from normal society.
Would that count as a flip?
Basically, the ultimate in dooging.
