[QUOTE="Battle89, post: 1825355, member: 748721"] I just disagree with the original poster's position, that blue blood status, once earned, is eternal. And the bolded above would indicate the same, why would you need to renew an application if you were already in? I do not consider UCLA and IU as blue bloods now; that does not mean they were not once great, or that they won't be great again. To me (to use the old Coach K arrogant saying), blue bloods don't recruit, they select. And IU especially, has not 'selected' for most of my adult lifetime. Here's hoping our 5-time national champion blue-blood football team wins its bowl game! [ATTACH type="full" width="483px"]21870[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
