Publius posted this a couple of weeks ago, but I decide to take a gander at 24/7 and see how many 2016 offers Stanford and the other Pac-12 schools have made thus far, along with a couple of other schools for the heck of it.
Stanford offers = 33
Rest of Pac-12:
UA = 51
ASU = 117
C.al = 90
CU = 50
UO = 45
OSU = 52
UCLA = 96
U$C = 57
Utah = 59
UW = 73
WSU = 55
Others:
N.otre D.ame = 110
Northwestern = 51
Central Florida = 65
San Jose State = 10 (seriously?)
Michigan = 138 (seriously again?)
If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)
