There is a post like this every year and it's really dumb because every house has a different personality so you can't really compare. They all only rush a handful of the same people because houses drop who they know isn't going to pledge them.Even some of the "lower tier" houses smartly dropped girls they knew weren't going to pledge them this year and concentrated on the ones that had a shot with. That stragety appeared to work and they got great girls. KD - they only go after a specific personality and zip code. They get most of them but it is why besides those girls no one considers them that great and they are considered bottom of OR unless you are from their preffered zip code. They struggle getting the few they cross rush with other OR except XO. AXO/AGD - you can forget getting in these houses if you have a bad rep or low gpa. They cross rush a few girls with other OR houses and win/lose some but there is a reason their retention is so high. Both got the majority of who they wanted this year so saying they didn't get a good pledge class is just not accurate. Both did lose some to other mainly OR houses like they do every year but they evened it out with the ones they won. PM - they get a lot of the cheer/dance girls and often have their pick with OOS. They get a lot of certain Alabama high schools but they also lose a ton. The Zeta/PM cross rush thing doesn't happen as much as it use to. XO - they are such a weird mix. It is true they get a lot of the ones that get cut by KD but they also cross rush a little with AXO/AGD/many NR houses. They split the AGD/AXO ones and get most of the NR ones. Zeta - they are much less competitive with OR than they try to make it. They were my surprise of the year. They may have overdone the social media thing. KKG/DDD - good houses that take way too many QR's that other houses drop. That is a fact. It's also a fact they are houses PNMs like in rush. No house ever gets every PNM they rush and they never lose every one. Most rushed specific girls that fit their house personality and most got the majority of them. I wouldn't say any house had a better rush than another because they just didn't go for many of the same PNMs. Fortunately there wasn't a shortage of great girls this year.
