I think athletic recruiters should have to pick from the students that got into the school, if a physics major wants to try out so be it. Instead of going out and hunting down a kid that can run a 4.3 40, and then teaching him to be a student or an unpaid athlete as the case may be. Intercollegiate sports are for students to play, not for semi pro's to play. Not that it'll change but that is what I think.
Seahawk I like your idea:
My solution is to have minmal classes during the football season, and, for each season played, award the player a semester in school on scholarship AFTER their playing elidgibility is over. That way, they at least have a chance at an education after the school has used them up.
