I believe that this article mischaracterized the argument against business schools. While some may go to the extreme of saying that MBAs are poor startup founders, the majority lie in another camp: that business school may be the wrong school to learn to be an entrepreneur.
This is effectively the argument for the Durant School of Entrepreneurship; Business schools teach corporate management (generally speaking), not entrepreneurship. While many schools may offer entrepreneurship courses, they are often just thinly veiled management courses.
