Big 12 has WVU regret?

North Carolina also has a little something called academics.  Louisville is a glorified junior college (at best).

This is questionable.

Check out the academic rankings.  If my kid wanted to travel cross country to attend UNC I would have no objections.

Sure, your kid who is likely not an D-1 revenue generating athlete.

Nope.  Probably better for him to be just a very good student. 

Revenue generating D1 programs are all scum.  There maybe a few exceptions to that statement (Stanford, Vandy...), MU is better than most, but we still live in a glass house.

Stanford and Vandy are probably the head of the class when it comes to RGDIAA (Revenue Generating D-I Athlete Academics), but don't think for a minute these institutions didn't bend the rules even a little bit for guys like Festus, DeMarre Carroll, David DeCastro, etc.

Does MU let in student-athletes that wouldn't gain admission otherwise?  Sure.  Is that mean they are "scum?"  Nope.
