I'm sorry, but how did we get stuck with Dr. Phil? 

[flyonthewall]

are you trolling utep?

[southsideguy]

SMUT must be so proud.

[drex]

Laughable.

Don't think she graduated.  lol.

Travis Scott didn't graduate from UTSA, but no one does, so I guess that's acceptable.

Did you see some of the others?!?

That said, Texas State-SM wins this one handily.

For those saying so and so didn't graduate, it says attendees, not graduates.

The actual Twitter post says attendees. The thread author made the same mistake.

This changes things.

Don Henley and Norah Jones trump Dr. Phil.

Would've preferred Stone Cold personally, but that's just me

My favorite would be among Pat Boone, Roy Orbison or Phyllis George.

This is a hit piece by a burnt orange fan. Are they back yet? Question, no info.

I almost added that there were others that might be considered better than the two I listed.

I guess it depends on generations and if they have to immediately be recognized by name. I feel Dr Phil is probably the best choice since every generation knows who he is at this point. Ask teenagers/young adults if they know who Meatloaf is and they'll probably tell you they're not hungry until you play a song and they realize they've heard his music. Dr Phil is known by name almost like Oprah at this point.

I’m sorry but when Robocop went to your school - it’s Robocop. Period.

I'm not sure.  We have a generation of kids that only watch YouTube, and are completely oblivious to daytime TV personalities.

This list is obviously an informal troll job, but I’ll chime in: I personally don’t think Phil is obvious anymore than Meatloaf, Fry, Roy Orbison or Norah Jones.  If you asked me for a UNT name that would be universally recognizable to the under-30 crowd, I’m not sure I’d have an answer.

DR. Phil is ok, but no way he is in the same league as Roy Orbison, Larry McMurtry, Don Henley, etc.  Did Willie Nelson really attend Baylor; are they counting concerts?

 

[meangreenfaninno]

I thought Roy Orbison would have been a decent choice.  2nd would be robocop.
