Considering the sham classes the athletes at North Carolina takes. You would think that every athlete in that school would be on the honor roll.

That list is kind of a black eye for schools like Georgia Tech and Wake.

It kind of dispels the myth that Louisville academics are somehow subpar compared to the upper crust of the ACC.

Not sure about GT but I wonder if it has to do with Wake’s total enrollment? They are the smallest enrolled D1 school in the country I believe.

Here is one reason, U of L competes in 21 men’s and women’s sports whereas Wake competes in 16 and GT only competes in 14. They don’t have as many athletes competing.

I've already checked, and there isn't much of a trend. Nothing to report, but no problem making the inquiry.

Thanks "Vince"
