McElroy embodies the typical Millennial mentality of "how dare you say anything critical of my team/side". 
Alabama is a middle of the road university in academics. It is a little better than LSU for sure, but let's not act like anyone going to Alabama chose it for academics over better schools.

Yeah but so is Oregon. That's why his statement is ridiculous, along with the fact that the only good thing he has to say about UO is 'Nike'

There's a zero percent chance McErloy would have gone to Bama if not for football. He would have been at Rice, Vandy, Duke etc.

McElroy came across as pretty juvenile when you challenge him to an IQ test.
He is a 21 yr old kid just talking out of his arse.

Oregon is in the top 100, while Bama is barely in the top 150.
Please stop trying to act like it somehow makes them equal.
More rankings for public universities:
Oreon #42
Bama #67

The era of NIL. Wins don’t matter. Just that big companies want to sign you

He is a 21-year-old grown man. McElroy has every right to tell him to frick off if he wants too.

21 year olds went from storming the beaches of Normandy to being coddled because someone on TV gave them a lecture. He’d be wise to take advice from someone like Greg.

I hate comments like this. Let's not act like every 21 year old was storming Normandy's beaches before millenials came along

He has quite the outsized opinion on what Oregon is academically

Probably nothing just like middle America schools aren’t teaching about the west coast.
