Can GQ Have a Douchey College List Without BC?

bc-seal.png An interesting query from GQ: What kind of douche bag do you aspire to be? Only in America. GQ listed America's Douchiest Colleges. Bostonist won't quarrel with most of the list. Most

The biggest problem with GQ's list is a glaring omission: Where is BC? They've got the Eagle Douche, Double Eagle Douche, and the Triple Eagle Douche. So Much Douchebaggery that you need three categories of Douche. The apex Triple Eagle Douchebag is Billy Bulger. Being schooled in Latin, knowing the words to Wild Colonial Boy, while being totally unaware of his brother's legendary alleged criminal behavior is a unique trifecta that only a few BC grads can pull off.

BC's biggest source of douches is the Athletic Department. Ex-coach Jeff Jagodzinski's departure was almost Bulgerian in scope. Other athletic douches include the audio duo of douche known as Steve DeOssie and Fred Smerlas, the douchey bar-fighters, and of course, the Hasselbecks!

Other observations:

  • The University of Texas earned the moniker "The Burnt-Orange Douche," but GQ didn't know why Texas is douchey. Bostonist does. Jenna Bush.
  • Randolph-Macon: Anyone ever heard of this place before this list?
  • The Ohio State University, The Excessive-School-Pride Douche. The way they have to say "The" before the name is douchey. If not for Mike Vrabel, the only connection to the New England Patriots would be Andy Katzenmoyer and Terry Glenn. Katzenmoyer was notorious for a weak course load as a "student-athlete" and was hurt as a Patriot. Terry Glenn was, well, Terry Glenn.
  • BU - 2nd rate douchery because there's no football team. Plus, Jack Parker = Not A douche.
  • Notre Dame - The moral Douche. GQ mentioned a fictitious student Gerry McDougal, and says "There is no Gerry McDougal." Bostonist bets there is one. He writes a sports blog called Rudy's Jock Sniffer. There really is no Rudy's Jock Sniffer. We hope.
  • Harvard - Granted, it is douchey. But, when you produce more billionaires than any other university, what do you expect?
