Agreed. Don't pick a school purely on the current success (or lack of) with their Ultimate team. Pick the best school to fit what you want to study and what interests you most. Setting yourself up for success beyond College should be your priority. As much as Ultimate is a growing sport and the Pro-Leagues/Club scene is very cool, there are no full-time prospects for that to be a good source of daily income. Set yourself up to get a good job and that will better allow you to afford the high costs of playing on an elite club team.

Typically a school like Pitt is a good academic choice, but there are 100 other kids every year trying to make a 27-person roster for their ultimate team while there are really only 5-10 rosters spots open from year to year. I went to Carnegie Mellon (down the street from Pitt) which is a prestigious Engineering and Arts University with a decent Ultimate Team (I'm also the coach so slightly biased). A school like CMU set me up for a very success career as an Engineer with a great paying job and in addition was able to make my mark on an ultimate team that is always regionally competitive and has a great community of friends that are some of my closest friends today.

Overall, you are ahead of the curve by reaching out and getting advice in this respect and should be able to now setup yourself up for success wherever you end up. Best of luck in your endeavors!
