Message: [QUOTE="Townie72, post: 3130856, member: 780"] You guys are worried about the classes these athletes take and the degree tracks they are on???? If that were only the scope of the problem. What about players who are juniors or even graduate who read at an 8th grade level? The degrees they are getting aren't worth the papaer they are written on. What about kids in classes whose IQ's and academic skills are so low they cannot get the benefit of even the most basic college course? Watch a couple of episodes of "Last Chance U" and tell me that our biggest problem is athletes being forced into easier classes and less demanding majors. Years ago they interviewed Georgetown's Reggie Williams on TV after game. He was a JUNIOR at the time at GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY. It was a revealing moment for me. He struggled to communicate so badly it was tragic. [/QUOTE]
