The Wall Street Journal posted a graph showing “How Good or Bad is your Team?”
The College Football Grid of Shame
The story behind the graphic is here:
Balancing Athletics and Ethics
College football is the ultimate balancing act between athletics and ethics: How much does your school win, and how far must it go to do it?
Every school is trying, somewhat futilely, to maximize its glory while minimizing the damage inherent in this megabucks business of “amateur” football. And so, with the season beginning in earnest on Thursday, The Wall Street Journal presents the Grid of Shame, our fourth-annual guide to the most powerful and deplorable teams in college football.
Some quick thoughts from looking at the graph:
1. State is about where I thought they would be
2. UNC* is about where I thought they should be
3. Ohio State is way too high.
4. Not surprisingly, 4 of the top 5 are near the bottom of the most embarrassing.
