[QUOTE="GTech63, post: 76760, member: 1683"] Where has football helped the academic side of a school? High school or college or university? Standards are compromised to allow admission of better players. How does this help academics? I am glad we have a competitive football and athletic program while maintaining our academic reputation and have not gone the way of MIT, Cal Poly, and other highly regarded engineering schools. We need to recruit nationwide not SE or Georgia primarily. We have a tougher recruiting mountain to over come and I think CPJ took a couple of years to fully appreciate it. IIRC when he first arrived, he said he would recruit Georgia first. He has learned there are a lot of good HS players in Georgia but the competition for them is fierce and academically many are not able to meet the acceptance standards of the Institute. OR they find their career interests (majors) are not available for them. [/QUOTE]
