Message: [QUOTE="bevosu, post: 2146312, member: 46"] Great to have the NY Times giving this scandal much needed life. [I] A historian, Jay Smith, has written a book, “Cheated,” on this case, and recently taught a class: “Big-Time College Sports and the Rights of Athletes, 1956 to the Present.” Students loved it; his classroom was filled. Last fall, the university canceled the class for a year. “It’s very disillusioning to live through the last six years here,” Smith told me. “The university is operating like a crime family, and it shows the lengths to which they will go to protect their athletic machine.”[/I] Hopefully light a fire under those NCAA hypocrites[I].[/I] [/QUOTE]
