You lose athletes and then the product on the field suffers." http://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/20284353/josh-rosen-ucla-bruins-says-football-school-go-together-ponders-alabama-success-sat-requirement-raisedOK, J Rosen. Thanks for showing your ignorance. Academically, I'd take Jonathan Allen, Greg McElroy, etc. over JR. These guys also have something Rosen seems to lack, character. JR couldn't even get it done against paper thin Aggies defense last year. Also lost two years in a row to Stanford, which has higher academic standards and admissions policies than UCLA.

Can college football be sustained at serious universities? We all know that the tail is now wagging the dog. Schools modified their entrance requirements and curricula to attract and graduate players. The quality of education has been eroded. What's the future? Title: Re: Josh Rosen shows his ignorance.

However, please review this. Also, the University of Alabama had 155 Merit Scholarship Awardees enrolling at Alabama in 2016. UCLA had 43.

Post by: hscoach on August 16, 2017, 06:43:28 PM If you check the media guide, and I have, many of Bama players were recruited by many of what is considered the academic schools: Stanford, Mich, Notre Dame, Duke, Vandy, Boston College, UCLA etc.

What's the future? It's not limited to athletes though. College is big business now, so standards are lowered and grades are inflated to attract and retain as many paying customers as possible.
