It's a big deal. I've given a lot of money and spent a lot of time, with thousands of others, just for this realization. UF is a top 10 university...where it has long belonged.
Of course, the fact most of my family went to the school which UF replaced in the top 10 is particularly sweet. (Badgers)
Big 10ers loved to say southern schools suck my entire life. Now, they can suck it.
