This thread was intended for individuals to express their personal opinions and experiences. The OP was very clear about that. My opinion was based on what I have seen of the Aggie and Longhorn alumni networks as well as academic and corporate reputation.
If you want to question the validity of my opinions, go right ahead. You can start by justifying the use of all these stats as proxies for both academics and reputation. Right now, I don't really care about any of them, but maybe you can convince me otherwise.
