With so many schools attempting to stake their claim as ‘linebacker U’ or ‘quarterback U’ or any position, really, it’s hard to make sense of which school has dibs on which positions. It has become cliche to even claim a position as your own, because, well, what’s the point? If 10-plus other schools are claiming that position, too, it’s hard to establish that particular position as your own. With that said, other than being something fans like to boast about, the ‘(enter position here)U’ can be quite the recruiting pitch to prospective recruits.
