Good grief. Are people still hanging on the AAU thing?

One, it’s not a requirement and it never has been. And even if it was, the same people approving an invitation are the same people who make (and can change) the rules. If a non-AAU institution can bring added value to the B1G - like say Notre Dame - the lack of AAU membership will not be an impediment in any way.

Notre Dame just became an AAU member this year. Coincidence?**

Every B1G prez knew NU was getting the boot. MSU was not AAU when it joined

This is true, but what I read - no idea if accurate or not - was that

The number of resident students is a good measure of academic quality now?
