@jaredhyslop123 i think it was Florida under Urban Meyer

It's not just the classes that is the problem, it is the fact that it is part of a bigger problem that is getting out of control. the video touched on the fact that some teams have 20 percent graduation rate, and these studies don't count the players that leave to go to the professional level of sport. I can't remember what team it was that i read about, but they had accumulated 24 arrests, leading to 9 felonies. Obviously the program has to change, and the players are the ones who are suffering

I could barley get through this garbage. First of all, a 1 credit course is going to have little to no effect on a student's GPA or ability to graduate. Second of all, if someone in the marching band can get 1 credit hour for all the hours they put in why not an athlete as well. Hell, I took 1 hr. rock climbing course in college. That doesn't mean I didn't also take 4 years of real classes as well. I think giving them 1 credit hour is LITERALLY the least they can do. This is complete nonsense.

this is a prime example of the media doing anything to get attention. most colleges offer courses in just about anything. so any college that has a course in football that a few varsity players just happen to take become the devil. im not saying some colleges dont abuse this, im just saying the lack of information in the video is stunning.

Wow, Harvard must be really tough when 100% of students graduate. Give me a break.

None of this is surprising, except that they were able to find two upper-echelon football schools (Notre Dame and Michigan) that don't do this kind of thing.

The one thing I take issue with is the characterization of Ivy League athletes. They are a breed apart, but they still receive athletic scholarships. Their scholarships just aren't called athletic, but that's what they are. Student athletes are accepted at the Ivies with lower numbers than their other students. It's a fact.

So this is what happens when schools become obsessed with winning.

If they give credits for takeing pictures, and planting plants....why QQ about giving credits to play football...
