Stanford is private, and has the toughest admission requirements in FBS.

To get a football scholie at Stanford requires about a 3.5 GPA, and a 3 part SAT of about 1900. Compare this to your school, college fans.

That there is a slate of 'courses of interest' represents the biggest scandal in Stanford football history-- which is no scandal at all. The Cardinal's NCAA infraction history is totally clean.

Still, the Cardinal were Orange Bowl victors, and finished ranked #4.

If any of you have a school with better football, a cleaner program, or better academics, chime in.

I didn't think so. Go Cardinal!

I am a Cardinal alum but find this news sad and disappointing. Admission standards or not, Stanford’s reputation is now tarnished by athletic dept encouraging athletes to take Mick courses.

Kudos for being a squeeky clean school that has a good year every other decade.
