Considering they work for the presidents, I am guessing this won’t fly.

I’m wondering, when considering the NCAA brought it up, as to whether or not those guys are a part of the problem. :?

They are absolutely part of the problem, but they aren't going to like someone telling them they are part of the problem.

You bet they are, a wink and a nod…….. while turning a blind eye.

Gotta keep those boosters and high dollar donors protected and happy…… :wink:

I think it just has more to do with their arrogance than even donor money.

Yeah, It is that world in which those guys live. Almost all of them think they walk above the masses.One that I met that wasn't like that was E. Gordon Gee. He was like a very small school president that had big school organization and management skills. He was a good guy, though a little on the nerdy side.
