[QUOTE="Lee, post: 800736, member: 786"] I agree it’s mainly for football and basketball. I also agree it’s most likely the only chance many of these kids would have at attending the school the do go to. Shoot there is no way I would’ve even been considered by GT if I didn’t throw a baseball pretty hard. I have no problem admitting that either. Where I think differently than you is that I already think the “unscrupulous programs” are already doing unscrupulous things to gain advantage over the schools that won’t or can’t to the extent they do already. I don’t see how this helps those programs. I think it actually gives schools like GT in a major city an advantage over those schools. I think we can all agree that the NCAA is a joke and as corrupt as the US govt (well maybe not that bad). I just think most of these guys have one chance to use their ability on the field to benefit themselves and their families and they should be able to do so. I think of a guy like Justin Thomas or Joe Hamilton. They were never going to be NFL qb’s (Joe had a small chance) but were superstars on campus. The school sold no shortage of #14 and #5 jerseys during their time. I think those guys should be able to get a small piece of that. Everyone knows why those numbers were picked. Same for guys like Nesbitt. [/QUOTE]
