Seems to be happening more and more since EV. I hope however they shake up the NCAA also clears up the mess that is LOIs and transfers.

What's most impressive is that 65% of the class is projected to academically
qualify. That would be a new record for SCjr and demonstrates the commitment of the SEC to its student-athletes.

Personally I like seeing this. I would also like for them to continue to get better, and I would like to play them much more(which we will ACC). I appreciate what schools like Duke, Stanford, Vanderbilt, and Northwestern bring to the table with similar standards to be upheld like ND. Honestly, I wish we played all of these schools every year to go along with Michigan, MSU, BC, USC, Navy and add any three in the combination of 1 marquee, and two cupcakes. That would still leave us with a very tough schedule yet make it manageable. I feel like we shoot ourselves in the foot sometimes on how we schedule, and even a rearrangement of opponents to different weeks could really alleviate that. Anyways, tangent finished. Congrats on the pick-up to Duke.

Think it's more a PSA to the other recruits out there to watch themselves. I don't read it as him being haughty, I read it as a message to all the prospects at follow him to be mindful of their shit.
