Message: [QUOTE="reedny, post: 1939638, member: 1423"] Let me finish Emmert's statement for him: "We don't put a gun to your head. First and foremost, it's about being a student at a university. [[B]Of course, there's so much revenue coming in from schools that have sham academics, we're not really in a position to enforce genuine academic requirements. In fact, although we put HS coursework under a microscope, once a player's "in" college we could care less about whether he or she actually attends classes -- or if the classes are even real! If we did, half of SEC basketball and all of SEC football would instantly implode. And we can't have that. So we perpetuate this "wheelhouse" farce to cover our ass, and we blame it all on accreditation[/B]]". [/QUOTE]
