Of course they don’t see the irony, they have no business on a college campus in the first place. I say this SHOULD be the end of the vicious, corrupt bloodsport called ‘college’ football. And, btw, it wouldn’t bother me to see the lesbian-ridden money-sucking women’s ‘sports’ defunded once the football teams go down in flames.
I graduated from BC and had a number of classes with athletes. I also took a second job in the varsity weight room in order to work out there with real equipment instead of being stuck with the decades-old nautilus machines they had at the student center. Some of the guys were nice and some were not but not one of them had any place in college classes. Most were pretty open about the fact that they had other students doing their work and some of their exams as ‘take homes’.
