Very nice piece - I highly recommend it. So many of our student-athletes are just great kids, a joy to root for and a great joy to know (if you get lucky enough to know them).

Only 7th in U.S. News? They must have found some way to "adjust" the stats to get Stanford down that low...

Well, there's still this:

"Stanford was seventh in the most recent U.S. News and World Report rankings of national universities. The Cardinal athletic teams have won 117 NCAA Division I titles, more than any other school -- and also more than the other top 10 schools in the U.S. News and World Report rankings combined (with the caveat that MIT and the University of Chicago field no Division I teams).

There are plenty of universities that excel in both academics and athletics, but there aren't any that can make the case they do so better than Stanford."

Geaux Cardinal!
