Perhaps Phillip Daniels aspires to an educational standard for his son that is as high as the football standard might be as offered by an "SEC school".

I am neither a Notre Dame lover nor a hater. But anyone who would argue that an honestly earned degree from Notre Dame does not have a real lifetime value is myopic at best and idiotic at worst.

Whatever decision the Daniels' family makes regarding the college selection for their son, I hope it works out splendidly for all concerned.
