NCAA and Academics

[rodserling]

I'm watching the NCAA womens golf championships on the Golf Channel and the NCAA has a commercial where they say 'the NCAA prioritizes academics'.
That statement made me want to puke. A North Carolina team is in the tourney too.

They do prioritize academics. It's just very low on the list.

 

[Smashcat]

The NCAA prioritizes ACC basketball.

 

[TeoJ]

They pick and choose.

 

[Larry Skaggs]

They prioritize academics for white golfers and lacrosse players

 

[Rolf Russman]

For the revenue producing sports they prioritize revenue producing.

Your dummies will always be in football and basketball, mostly. Volleyball, golf, tennis, water polo, soccer, lacrosse will always feature mostly bright students. Baseball is pretty basic.

But yeah, football and basketball features a ton of people that have no business being in college.

NCAA cares about one thing...
