Post Christmas Quiz
While everyone comes out of their post-Christmas sugar comas, here's a little quiz to get the brain juices flowing. Now, no Googling. This quiz is clearly made to remind you how feeble our brains are at retaining simple trivia. The quiz comes from Games Magazine and asked you to name at least three of the five correct answers. All of the answers next week.

Except it's only 4 schools ...
Whoops! Amended. I had "five" on the brain from the other questions. But yes, four schools only, Trashman.
I certainly can't pass your quiz. Keep up the good work! <:\
Oh dear...the only one I can get off the top of my head is Michigan. How about Navy? Anything else would be wild guesses.
You are indeed halfway there. Michigan (Ford and Brady) and Navy (Carter and Staubach). The other two involve a 20th Century President and a 19th Century President. Here's the clue we gave ADR for the fourth school. This school was recently involved in a major archival controversy.
Ok, I'm guessing here, but the third one is Stanford, right? Didn't Hoover go there?
For the fourth, a wild guess. Tennessee?
