If players can't pass tests they have no business wasting the time of educators and holding back other students' educations.
Let the parents of such "promising" players send them to camps and special coaches as parents do for young promising tennis and gymnastics athletes.
Let the professional teams provide funding for such coaching for those who can't afford to pay. Its the NBA and the families of successful players that benefit from the collegiate basketball "farm system"; the NBA and families should pay for it.
Students who are able to do college work are the ones who are negatively affected by this idiotic system. College should concentrate on factual education, not racist propaganda, or sport.

I thought the purpose of going to a college or university was to obtain an education not staff the coaches with players for all the sports that can lead to a professional career, that the sports were an extracurricular activity. We all know that isn't true but it sounds good. Coaches have long lobbied teachers to go easy on THEIR players because they 'represent' the school to the public. Why not create a special athlete curriculum without academic studies, except for rudimentary reading, writing, simple math, and protesting! all that needed these days to succeed in professional sports. Then issue a certificate of attendance without a degree as it's rarely needed anyway.

To dismiss this as yet another instance of college athletic coaches playing the role of farmers for future professional athletes would be too easy. To remember that Knute Rockne himself insisted that his players keep their grades up would be dismissible as yet another instance of "white culture" and "whiteness."

Now I give you this:

The second is a tweet containing the infamous "white culture" image--which, I note, the Smithsonian scrubbed from their "Whiteness" page. Cowards.

All this is an example of critical race theory, according to which:

Racist ≡ White.

Uh, most hockey players - and teams - are Canadian. 'Nuff said.

So let's pull collegiate sports out of college altogether. Separate them entirely. Make them private businesses with a loose affiliation to their alma maters and stop them from looting the actual students. Let them pay their players and finance their own stadiums. And I, in turn, will never watch a game again.

If you want to remove the "student" from "student-athlete," go ahead. But go all the way.

Early on, BLM openly said math is racist and an example of white supremacy.

Yes Pro golf. They are individuals playing for their own self-interest. Hockey and hockey players are probably not promoting collectivism either.

Yeah...I've not followed pro sports for probably 15 years or more. Pro golf is the exception...

The new world. Knowledge is racism. Silence is violence. Let's start throwing the victims of crime into prison while we're at it...

Watching all the coaches and players take a knee for the national anthem as Dr Anthony Fucky threw out the opening pitch for the NY maggots and the Washington Marxists baseball game the other day. I thought yes pro sports are dead to me .So is the higher brainwashing institutions privileged peabrained atheletes.
