Instead of College basketball, we need a viable minor league basketball system. Why make a mockery out of college? They turn these kids into cash cows and exploit them further with this crap.

Sadly, I bet this was one of their more DIFFICULT exams.

Exactly. They don't give a dayum about education anyway!

I disagree, a whole lot of kids go to school and really do something, and even if they don't graduate, they leave in a whole lot better shape than when they came. <br>In addition, a minor leauge system will never come close to the support one will give to thier school. That's not even a close contest. Hell, a lot of pro teams cannot get the support that college teams do. (For example, the Saints may draw 70,000, but LSU will put 91,000 in Tiger stadium). No matter what the system is, there will be some bad apples.

I wonder if Darnell Kennedy would have passed this class?

I see that Rudy Washington ain't the only you're still thinking about.

But since you bent over for both of them, it understandable that Rudy AND Darnell are still on your mind.
