[quote=Anonymous][quote]That will be a lot more persuasive when top basketball programs start affirmatively recruiting shrimpy intellectual kids who can't jump in order to provide beneficial "diversity" on their basketball teams! It is funny how diversity arguments apply to the academics but not to sports teams.[/quote] I suspect this poster is still a child and does not remember the days in college and professional basketball recruiting (1930s, 1940s, 1950s and 1960s) when the players on the top teams at all levels were not even the best athletes or highest jumpers in the land. I remember those days...affirmative action of another kind (also in the highest eductional establishments of the land). I do not understand the poster's argument here. [/quote]
