And the money. Bama is throwing money around to attract National Merit Scholarship high school students. They hope the money spent today will return in alumni donations in the future. So far so good with that program. It is still a state school, a pretty good one, but a state school.
Y'all realize LSU does this too?

No. No they don't. My son was a NMF and Alabama offered him a full ride. LSU offered him $2000 on top of TOPS. So it would have cost me several thousand more just to send him to his state flagship.
Bama doles out more scholarship money than anybody in the country. I think the high out-of-state enrollment is due to this more than anything. Look, I hate Alabama, but they have been first class in the way they have dealt with my kid.

Not nearly at the level and geographical span Alabama is doing.
People need to keep in mind the schools have different strategies and focuses. Their political and funding structures are different. It is not an apples to oranges comparison.
