This is true. If you look at civil engineering we are #8, just behind UM. Bama and USC-E are tied at 81 and I don't think UNC even has civil. They are ranked #82 in overall engineering while Bama is ranked 109 and USC-E is ranked at 93.
Hopefully we are selling that if academics are really his important factor, specifically engineering, it's down to us and Michigan.

I was just talking about Michigan.

That's actually not true. Michigan is 7th in us news and world reports we are 24th.

I was just referring to USC-E and Bama's engineering programs. And we were #15 last year for undergraduate, #24 for graduate.
Also, someone asked about Petroleum Engineering as he's mentioned this before. VT doesn't offer this, but only 17 schools in the country do and none in his top 5 do. You can do MechE or ChemE and get PetE type jobs anyways so it's not a big deal.

Remember that one time when Hoo fans thought they had a serious shot at Hand.

Well, if they get Brown, then they are pretty much breaking even with us.

We are definitely not considered his top 5 per 247 on the big draft board logo-wise... Even though right next to the "top 5" it says he named us in his top 5. Hah. Kind of embarrassing that there are 3 VA kids in the top 10, and we don't even have a logo in any of their top 5 choices.
I seriously don't know what I'd do if we got him, but considering our luck with these types from VA (without serious family connections, like all star brothers) we probably have a, what 1-30 chance?

Doesn't really matter who is better at this stage. They are both big tme prospects in both schools back yards at a critical position. You can NEVER have too many good DL. It doesn't really matter who is better...realistically Brown is supposed to be a btter DT recruit than any DT recruit we have ever landed. The goal is to get both of them.
