I transferred schools growing up, got an underage drinking ticket, didn't get the best of grades or test scores, I guess I am questionable.  Who knew!

Well, I guess we all do now.  I, on the other hand, only went to one high school (graduated in four years, thank you!), and got my paperwork in on time. No questions whatsoever.  By the time I graduated from MU, however, I was very questionable.

Let me suggest a book that many of you will enjoy that will help clarify the clearinghouse issue.  It's called Black Men Can't Shoot, a sociological study of the Philadelphia basketball scene.  while it doesn't directly speak to clearing house, it does talk about how kids work to become known, so that they can receive scholarships to college, and to develp a reputation, they may have to switch high schools to play against better competition.  This is a very common thing in most major cities--not saying that it is a good thing--but this is just the way it is today.  Us neandrathals might not like it becaue that is not the way it used to be, but times do change, and Universities must adapt.  Eventually, the NCAA will catch up as well.

With school choice, charter schools, voucher schools, etc. the entire nation is pushing for more choice in education...kids no longer have to go to neighborhood schools, and the NCAA and society need to understand the pro's and con's of kids switching schools when families think there's something better available at little to no cost.

Came to Senior Day when the 3 Amigos and Dwight were finishing. It was the first time I was aware of Butler - his 2 ND half was great. I don't know who the poster was who (after that game) christened him Jimmy F. butler, but he was dead on. He just went on from there. I hope he gets that degree and does well with the Bulls.
