Message: [QUOTE="Dick_in_MI, post: 4704104, member: 225"] I'm totally opposed to it for all the reasons that have been stated. In addition, it incentivizes loading up on what used to be referred to as "jock majors"...a boatload of easy classes that resulted in a degree in Going to College. We have had athletes that were very good students and were willing to challenge themselves with demanding majors. At least one of them publicly stated that the staff (Dino) pressured them to major in something that would result in zero risk of ineligibility. The player stood firm. Since the concept of being declared academically ineligible seems to be a thing of the past via who knows what mechanism (wink wink), this just seems like another way to instead steer an athlete towards easy classes and majors as a potential source of income.
