[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Doesn't this end up dumbing down the curriculum?[/quote] Why do you assume student athletes are dumb? [/quote] Because most are. There are a minority of students who are strong academic performers, but that is extremely rare.[/quote] What’s your source for this? “Dumb jock” is a stereotype. Most of the kids, football included, I know who are top athletes are also great students. They have tight schedules and focus their time around those schedules. [/quote] Like I said there are some smart athletes...but a school will tolerate poor academic performance for strong athletic performance. It happens in many high schools and universities (not all). But SJC is definitely one of them. [b]That is why they have such a strong football team. [/b]Same with a lot of SEC schools. That's the reality of it. [/quote] Their program is pretty "mid".[/quote]
