I read the story, it's only a couple of paragraphs long, and only a few sentences in each. It's pretty easy to pick out when they call a university a college. there is a pretty major difference between the two...

A university is the large entity made up of many colleges i.e. the college of business, the college of education. outside of the basic definition calling UL a college makes its seem that we are the same type of institution as SLCC or BRCC.

Did you have fun in your early 20's in college? Or university?
If you interview Delhomme, you would ask "How did your experiences in college prepare you for the NFL?"

"He played his college ball at Louisiana."

The two words seem to be used in different contexts, but the meaning of the words are the same.

_ Since 1967. He had what 5 quarters of play all year? Wasn't very good from what I can remember. i would rather have Jake! _

Come on 90, even Z knew who the backup is, and he's a BrownPanther fan.

BTW, expect Jake to sign with Cleveland.
