With pervasive gambling, the transfer portal and not even academic lip service anymore, what could go wrong?

Well, they’ve probably had other people doing their homework and taking their tests for them since Junior High, so what’s the problem? Keep spoiling them.

Might as well, the transfer portal has made college completely a feeder league for the NFL (not that isn’t wasn’t mostly before).

The NCAA should just be dealing with sporting rules. The colleges should handle the academics.

The NCAA’s Own Goal: A January vote may permanently eliminate standardized-testing requirements for student-athletes.

The NCAA should quit pretending they are "student-athletes".

Next they’ll waive attendance, and after that they’ll eliminate classes altogether.

Great. Remove the one incentive the student athletes had to actually study.

I’d only make the athletes who want an actual major take classes. And if the athlete just wants basketweaving as a major, no need for classes.

My college had entire departments just to keep the idiot athletes on the honor rolls.

More of the nefarious process to “dumb down” American society.

How can the NCAA, an athletic association, set admission policies for member universities? This is pretty amazing, pretty blatant, to try and eliminate standardized admissions tests for athletes only.

Pull the plug. Shut it down. Return all college sports to a club basis. The alums can still get drunk. The tv mafia can go pound sand.

As if these “student athletes” have to pass any standardized tests currently. In a sane world, most of them couldn’t sniff a college if even applying for a janitor position. The NCAA has been a JOKE for decades and is getting worse.

Solution: Separate sports teams from academics. If schools wish to “own” a team then let them do so. Pay the players a fair salary with **real** money and no strings attached. Treat it like a business that is separate from the school.

Sports tied to fake scholarships, class attendance, and GPAs cheapens the degrees earned by the true scholars.

UNCheat, aka North Carolina, got around this a long time ago with the so called African American studies degree. What a scam.
