How this plays in The Chains
A shared college is a link, just like a shared team, and every link is scored by how unlikely it was that a fan would name it. Connect two players through Mike Jennings and the Grambling State link is rated Legendary (+250 bonus points). Some daily puzzles even require a Grambling State alum in your chain.
