Message: [QUOTE="NJCuse97, post: 5429105, member: 5058"] Not really only because one or two athletes shouldn't paint the whole of the student-athlete, no matter how ineffectual the NCAA may have become. Why do we want to share the values of UNC with fake classes, or Ohio State's Cardale Jones, [I]"Why should we have to go to class if we came here to play FOOTBALL, we ain't come to play SCHOOL, classes are POINTLESS"?[/I] Maybe Syracuse University is trying to be different from that, and maybe they are trying to stay in step with what THEY see as peer institutions, or the correct path. Fran has said himself that he expects more from his student athletes, and that they will have a 6 figure job in their major lined up within 40 days of graduating. I endorse this thinking. I like it as a culture, and I think it will draw in recruits. I see a lot of parallels to this and the AW vs SU arguments. [/QUOTE]
