93tiger16, why are you so getting so mad? lol, calm down.
Do a simple search for faculty at schools from different tiers and take a look at where their profs got their PhDs. Most of the ones from lower tiers still graduated from prestigious universities. What you said (that it is an exception rather than common for professors at lower tier schools to have graduated from top schools) is simply not true.

I’m not going to waste my time compiling a list of schools for you. just do a simple search. here’s one of many to get you started: [url=http://www.eng.fsu.edu/me/people/]Mechanical Engineering :: Faculty and Staff/url
