No Athlete Left Behind

Frankly, this news surprises me. The NCAA is putting teeth into the awarding of athletic scholarships. I never thought that the big schools would sign on to performance tests to improve academic standards for student athletes.

The good news is that there is an opportunity to improve the education of student athletes. A few athletes make it out to the pros, but many college athletes do not win the pro lotto and are either under-educated or not educated to succeed beyond their college years. I hope the program is administered with integrity.
