[quote=Anonymous]IMHO, the issue in this post is not the star basketball and football players at major D1 universities (those are a whole other set of issues). It is the large percentage of admits to smaller top academic schools that go to athletes. I do not resent it, but I also recognize that they are getting in for their athletic abilities, not their academic caliber. I call BS that the parents of these students think their kids are getting in on their academic merit the same as the non athletes (and the legacy and other hooks are no better). [/quote]
