re: Parents of the OT, would you move away for your kids?

this is one reason for the explosion in popularity/growth at the satellite campuses. A student still gets some semblance of the "Brand" of UT/ATM by going to UTSA/UTDallas/ATM SA etc. When my kids were starting college 12 yrs ago, I heard an SEC admin (might've even been Nick Saban) say that Texas top 10% rule was actually a boon for the SEC, because a lot of very good students who didn't meet that rule were now going to SEC schools. My daughter graduated from LSU in 2018 and I remember at some parent orientation, they asked us to raise hands by what State we came from, and when they got to Texas, there must've been half the room. I went to UT in the early 80's btw...Geaux Tigers! Btw, people move districts in Texas just to have their kid play for Katy, Allen, etc..
