What you quoted from Eric is more about what happens a few years into your career.Do you want to say that person that obtain a degree from the top universities could be less prepared for a job and do a worst 5-years of carrier then who graduate from a not very known university?
Right after you graduate, you probably don't have a record of accomplishments other than your degree, so all a prospective employer has to go on is your grade point average (GPA) and supporting references and letters of recommendation.Does it help - yes, is it a guarantee - no.
Five years after graduation, where you graduated and your grades are less important than what you have accomplished -- that's what he is saying.
