For regular students, this isn't a question.  But the APR standards of the NCAA is pretty much a self-policing standard.  If CPJ recruits players who cannot make the grade at GT, the APR falls and the team HE coaches loses scholarships.  If he does this, he will inevitably be fired.  So my take is this....let him recruit kids who qualify according to NCAA standards.  If he starts taking kids who can't make the grades at Tech, it WILL come back to bite him. For a school that takes pride in failing out a high percentage of each freshman class, it sure seems duplicitous for those same people to be worried about how many football players would "theoretically" fail out.</blockquote>
