Vanderbilt put out a press release saying that they are too careful to ever be duped in this way.
One wonders if they were not a little worried that they were not included on this list of “elite” schools. “How come no one is cheating to come here?”
Vandy is probably breathing a collective sigh of relief, as are a lot of other elite schools. And they shouldn’t pat themselves on the back too hard; as we’ve learned, all it takes in one corrupt coach to identify rich kids as “recruited athlete,” and boom, you’re a part of the corruption club. And don’t tell me there aren’t some coaches leading “low revenue” teams at Vandy who see the fat checks and bennies given to the football, basketball and baseball coaches, and wouldn’t be tempted to “supplement” their income.
