[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 454515, member: 2299"] I feel like this line of thinking is overblown. First of all, a college senior is 22-23 and there are plenty of adults that age who have been working for years, and to act like they are still a kid is disingenuous and disrespectful to the SA as well. Secondly, many of the athletes we have would not have gotten into GT without their athletic ability. They don't have to compete against the regular applicant to get in, and that is a big deal and holds value. On top of that they get a full ride scholarship almost entirely for their ability to play football, because the academic bar is very low, even at GT, which may not be worth what they are bringing in to the university, but try telling that it is nothing to the students going into a lot of debt to get that same education.
