How do we expand our footprint to Dallas, Atlanta, Nashville, Charleston, etc.? Because that's how you start changing the perception. And that's what we need. A national perception change. Ole Miss has been able to do that and is capitalizing off of it.

Have we historically been high or is it just this year that we have connections?
