Message: [QUOTE="reedny, post: 1386080, member: 1423"] The onus is on BOTH the player and institution to play by the rules (maintain full-time student status and fulfill academic requirements as a condition to participation). There are schools with legitimate intentions that get burned by poser "graduate" students. But there are also sham schools inviting 5th year (and other) kids knowing they have no intention of doing any real coursework. That's fraud and those kids don't belong on the field competing against real student athletes. My issue with your post (nothing personal) is that, in either case, there is harm. So asking, "what's the big deal" (as you seemed to be asking) is a Kentucky-style question, which is anything but "funny". Maybe I read you wrong. But that's what it seemed like you were saying.
