Title: •Report: Saban to offer 4-year scholarships at Alabama Post by: Jamos on February 28, 2012, 06:25:17 PM Hmmm, if this means that the players have to stay at Bama for 4 years, there may be some sad coaches in the SEC. ;)

Quote "We're going to offer four-year scholarships," Saban said. "Our whole conference is going to do it, all the schools, I think. "And we're happy to do it." I'd rather offer one year per each star. 5-star players get 5 years.

"The player will still have to be academically eligible. He will still have to obey team rules and regulations. And the player is still going to have the same rights and the same appeals process that he has now."

Title: Re: •Report: Saban to offer 4-year scholarships at Alabama Post by: MLB10 on February 29, 2012, 06:28:12 PM Athletes should get the same kind of scholarship commitment from a university as a person there on academic scholarship. No more. No less. I know the athletes have a lot extra on their plate but that's how I feel. The world could live without sports, but doctors, teachers, etc...no way.

You are extending far more respect to the teaching profession than most would. Coaching is the only subgroup with some semblance of performance evaluation and ongoing training. |
