More loaded than UT or SMU? Doubtful. I mean I know they are compared to LSU but they're like a wealthy Mississippi State in terms of being goofy socially awkward hicks my point was that their "99.9%" of average students that aren't going to end up mega rich are viewed as lower class to most of the people I know from Austin and Houston. It's just kinda funny to me that they would be arrogant when they're viewed as a lower tier school by everyone that goes to better Texas universities

No one is more loaded than those schools

Pretty sure A&M is the wealthiest, or 2nd to Vandy, in the SEC. They are up there man.

Hey, I love mocking the weird TAMU people as much as the next guy. They are dorky, culty, ugly, weirdos. However, its a pretty dang good school and they are loaded, so while I like them being viewed as lower-class, I don't think there is really any truth to that reputation you've heard about.

SMU is comprised of a lot of the wealthiest kids across the country-especially California and the Northeast. It's got a far higher percentage of OOS kids than A&M, UT, and TCU. A&M and Texas are more so instate kids.

Still schools like LSU, Bama, Arkansas, and Ole Miss have gotten a lot of kids from good families and resumes just from the 8% rule alone
