Message: [QUOTE="SoBristol, post: 1344467, member: 485"] Yes -- and there is some truth in that. If you recruit an occasional at-risk kid (a 7 ft Brazilian, for example, with limited ability to do SU work), you have to oversee the efforts to encourage academic progress and the efforts that player is making with classwork. As head coach, you don't have to do it yourself -- but you hire good people, set the tone of integrity, and check how things are going at key points. Or, they get surprised when bad things happen in their programs, and get defensive. [/QUOTE]
