[QUOTE="slugboy, post: 637769, member: 282"] O’Leary kept tabs on academic progress. Gailey thought that the academic advisory team would keep that all sorted out. He may have even been told that was the case. We were changing academic calendars and adopting APR, and the advisors screwed up with a large group of kids. (I’m not entirely sure about the academic calendars—I thought we’d moved to semesters earlier than that, but that was part of the explanation at the time.) We got hit twice—good players became ineligible and we got hit with recruiting sanctions. It’s a mistake in a couple of areas—he screwed up and trusted them, and as CEO of the football team he’s got a responsibility to make sure all phases of the program under him are operating correctly. You don’t have to do it yourself, but you gotta look at the reports and ask some tough questions. And, the AD screwed up in a big way in that regard too. As a coach and an AD you can delegate, but you’ve got to verify. Academics can’t entirely be someone else’s job. [/QUOTE]
