Sports Management At UM

Does anyone know anything specific about this program? Is there a way to mold a Ross degree toward sports or is this the best opportunity? Plus, I've heard it's not taken very seriously. Info?

I always wanted to go to UM, but I didn't bother applying, because I did only okay in HS. I went to a top 60 school, but hated it, and transferred to where I am now, which is a third tier state school. However, I'm a sports management major, and we have one of the best SM programs in the country. That being said, the program here is much stronger than UM's, but I would sacrifice that to attend UM. I know that the SM program had some issues, because it was a place for 'stupid' athletes, but I think that's changing. I'm not sure if you can double major or get a minor from Ross, but at my current school, I'm doing a joint program where I get a minor in business in addition to my major in SM.

I'm wondering if anyone knows transfer statistics for Kinesiology, specifically for SM.

Because it has a better rep in the SM world, 100% job placement, and didnt have scandals where athletes were majoring in it almost exclusively.
