In response to Jeff2sf

The NCAA will consider the no sit out rule this summer. The one year sit out requirement will be waived for students with a GPA that exceeds 3.0

Like all quantitative measures, this one is not without controversy. Is a 3.0 the same across all D1 institutions when you consider academic rigor? Can schools purposely manipulate a GPA downward to discourage a player from transferring? Is it racially discriminatory?

We know from our own AI system that uniform standards and academic hurdles raise thorny issues that are uncomfortable for many of us.

PS If the proposal passes (I heard it's a real possibility) Jamir Harris might be able to play immediately. He's supposed to be a very good student.
