Nice work, Bucky. Couple thoughts:
A lot of these Ivy League types want to transfer to "academic" schools. So those seeking "big time" programs will mostly set their sites on schools like Duke and Stanford.
Also, the leader of JLSports is an ex-Yale player, according to what has been written. He's basically represented most of the top Ivy League NFL prospects for a couple decades. I think Matt Birk and Ross Tucker (ex-NFL centers) are notable ones that comes to mind. His break in the big-time was Joe Flacco (Delaware) getting drafted in round #1.
Didn't realize NFL agents are now in the transfer portal "racket"? Another thing about him, he's very close to Bill Belichick, so UNC might be a solid destination for Ivy Leaguers -- excellent academic repution, even with all the black FB and BkBall teams. I suppose Vanderbilt and Northwestern could be others?
Some state schools could fit too. University of Connecticut, for example, is a very under rated state school. But their (high profile) sports teams have been filled with ghetto types for so long, it's obscured fan perceptions. Particularly when you think about the teams Jim Buffoon (aka Calhoun) put on the floor for several decades. Last decade, before the stuttering clown was finally forced out (his hand picked replacement Kevin Ollie was just as bad) , DWF's all around the U.S. mocked his teams as the "U-Convicts"
Buffoon continually had to defend his reputation. What an a--hole. Once telling ESPN he always put "education" first
Football coaches from Randy Edsall to the present caste cuck didn't change that perception of the school with their mostly coal-black teams.
Virginia, Wisconsin, California-Berkley are examples of other competitive (admissions wise) state schools, but unlike Connecticut, don't have a history of fielding all (or mostly) black teams in football and basketball.
