Uh no. College has always been about sports and it is another source of scholarships for poor kids. |
The very fact that Stanford is the lead of your post and included in an article blaming coronoavirus is proof that neither you nor DraftKings knows what you're talking about. Stanford made this decision pre-pandemic. |
Better for the poor kids to focus on academics anyway. They can get academic scholarships. Or maybe parents could put the money they spend on travel sports chasing scholarships into 529s and pay their own way. |
You demonstrate your imbecility. COVID exasperated the situation at Stanford. If the PAC-12 struggles because of a lack of revenue from cancelled football and basketball, major teams like USC and Orgegon will bolt and the Pac-12 will collapse, leaving Stanford in a desperate situation. PAC-12 lags SEC, BIG 12 and Big Ten in terms of conference distributions, without those funds, Stanford will be forced to cut more programs. Do you seriously believe that it will use its endowment to fund athletics. COVID-19 is a threat to the existence of college athletics. Just tell your moronic friends and neighbors to wear a mask so that we can end this pandemic and rebuild our nation and way of life. |
Exacerbated, not exasperated. Although i think COVID is exasperating all of us. |
| DD is a 22 and all is going well with recruiting. Virtual visits work and lots of discussions and texts with coaches. |
Why? Serious question. Not trolling. |
Have other 22 kids had trouble getting an SAT or ACT score? The coaches keep saying that’s something they need, but then this sort of thing keeps happening: https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/906120.page Anyone having luck with offers without scores? |
