I think Lynn Swann may have benefited financially from the scandal, too.

Lynn doesn’t know what blind sided is. He will when he is fired. The sports writers in LA wanted his head long before this latest SUC clown school episode.

In the real world, there would be reports about all the athletes on each team, status, amount of scholarship and results by each athlete. Those reports would be used to verify that scholarships were going to real athletes and show how well each coach was making decisions about where the money went.

Of course, universities seem to just throw money around like it is not their’s and there is always more where that came from, oh wait...

Ironically, he used to host the game show ‘To Tell The Truth’.

But, really, who the Hell cares about the girls’ crew team? Apparently the only benefit offered to the Loughlin girls was favored admission. The friggin’ crew coach put in a chit for the girls with the admissions director. They got no scholarship money. Why in the name of Beelzebub would any follow up to see if they actually joined the crew team? The whole transaction could have gone by without Swann even being “in the loop”? He may well never have been informed.

He was there for one reason: to recruit football players.

Sure. Affirmative action in admissions is as much of a fraud as what the Hollywood celebrities just did.

“Incompetent“

Perhaps, but I tend to cut him a little slack. You tell me what D-1 major university AD knows the names of the students of their tennis, crew, golf, etc, etc, teams. Their focus is on the programs that generate revenue, football, basketball, maybe baseball. I’m guessing this will change, already changing at warp speed probably...

Agreed. Being the guy in charge and claiming ignorance is not exactly a great career move.

I remember Hussein Obama used to learn about things earlier in the day via the newspapers or cnn. It is bullshit.

agreed, If you don’t know what is going on where you have primary responsibility, then you are incompetent.

Hardly. You think the athletic director personally validated every recruit offer? Let alone folks for the crew team or tennis? Be serious.

I doubt highly most athletic directors at major universities could even tell you the name of their coach for minor sports like crew, golf, tennis or shooting and the like.

That’s like saying a college dean is incompetent because he didn’t personally approve every syllabus for every professor at the school

Swann should have played for the University of Tennessee. His home was just a few minutes away. He's an opportunist anyway.

Like I earlier had opined....

The ‘wrong’ people were getting the spoils.

A bribe is a bribe, be it a new wing on the library or paying someone to take the test..Bad enough ‘distinguished alum’ get a boost up and don’t even try convincing me that all these political offspring (presidents kids) ALL rate Brown, Stanford, Harvard etc as their own life is fairly hectic and an ‘ace student’ is guaranteed a walk on.

Name means a lot and (although not a fan) I always figured if Jr Earnhart had been the son of Dale Smith the plumber, it would have required a ticket to get into the oval other than to keep the heads operating.

I had cited a certain Senator and pResidential hopeful who would not only had washed out of Annapolis and definitely flight school had he made it that far if his blood line wasn’t career Naval Officers.

I know RHIP is a ‘truism’ but to turn down an otherwise ‘perfect’ candidate and fill the slot with a ‘relative’ is a form bribery also.

I used to like him UNTIL now. The BS detector is off the scale. EVERYBODY knows of those in “pay to play” from college admissions,athletics and government.

Incompetent <<

Yup....Incompetent at best...collusion at worst..

What exactly is the job description of the “Athletic Director”?...I'm sure it runs many pages and costs thousands to write up....I wonder what AD was paid to “OVERSEE” all the programs?...Does anybody now???
