[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Playing sports competitively in college is fine. Hiring athletes is fine. Giving such an admissions preference to recruited athletes is nonsensical for academic institutions. [/quote] Remember Boys in the Hood? Ricky was recruited to play football at usc and couldn’t get the 700 on the sat he needed to play. He finally gets the 710 and they find out after he’s killed. Ahhh USC athletics. [/quote] Applause [/quote] And the scene with the coach coming over to Ricky's house to recruit him made it clear that the coach had all the power in the world to get him into USC (and keep him enrolled there) as long as he got the 700--it didn't matter he was failing classes and it didn't matter that he wasn't prepared in any way--academically or emotionally or socially--for college.[/quote]
