Message: [QUOTE="newmexicuse, post: 1456383, member: 57"] I have been on the sideline about this, not because I don't care, but because I had nothing to add. Well, here is my 2 pennies worth. It appears that Diagne is a great kid, who had solid academics, at least stateside. The NCAA has it backwards. Instead of looking to find ways to make kids ineligible and potentially hurt their future, [B][I]they should be looking to help kids that do not have a negative history of academics and/or behavior issues to gain their eligibility. This should be done in conjunction with the school offering the scholie.[/I][/B] They are so much BS about being about the kids, when everything they do SCREAMS the opposite. If the truth and Diagne is really only about one course, why couldn't they simply have given him an exam on that coursework & if he passes let the matter be dropped. That is what I call being for the kids and giving them a fair chance. They are pathetic any way you slice it. [/QUOTE]
