[NU Sports] Blue in Indy ...

[Arthur Miller]

Well, I would venture that a big part of the Evil Empire's problem is that most of their arrogant "alumni" aren't in fact alumni at all.  As a result, they have less an interest in maintaining academic integrity.

But your'e right, Chuck: If we could ever get our football or basketball programs to the level of Duke basketball, I guarantee that we'd have more than our fair share of arrogant alumni.  Hell, we're arrogant enough even without that level of success.  (And rightly so--we're NORTHWESTERN!)   :-)

Jim said "My dislike of Duke has little to do with their basketball success and A LOT to 
do with their arrogant alumni. They are the Notre Dame of the south."

If I ever find any alums that aren't arrogant, they need to get sent back to alum school.  I always thought the first lesson was highlight everything good (real and imagined) about old alma mater, and overlook anything bad.  A few have even labeled our alums as arrogant.  The horror !  

I always thought the Evil Empire's problem was that those alumni were not only arrogant, but thought the game of football was created, perfected and currently only played at ND.  Problem is, there has not been much meaningful football played there in years.
