Message: [QUOTE="HtownOrange, post: 1912117, member: 622"] Good point. The Ivies do not offer athletic scholarships and the kids must progress academically to stay in school and on the team. This is probably the ideal and the original intent of the NCAA. However, the NCAA of late has been less than diligent in its enforcement activities. Perhaps if they would not waste a decade proving a self reported incident and spend a little time investigating a parent "selling" his son's services to the highest bidder (C. Newton's father, UF expelling the kid, Mississippi claiming the $250K was too steep and Auburn having one great season and then tanking), or completely fabricated (or should we refer to these as "cloud" classes) wherein the class, the students and the professors simply do not meet, do work or test (UNC). A far cry from an honest self report and subsueing 10 year investigation. [/QUOTE]
