Modern day college football

Here in Evans, Georgia the major universities in the area are the University of Georgia, Clemson University, South Carolina University and Georgia Tech. The rabid fans of each school are numerous and the papers obviously cover them to varying extents. Today, there was an article on the U. of Georgia football team. The coach, Mark Richt, was questioned about the "character" of his players. Since April, 2004, 11 of his players have been arrested and 6 of his 19 incoming players (students recruited to join the school this Fall) are ineligible to play because of poor grades. There could be another one depending on the outcome of an investigation of alleged cheating by another player who also had a charge of battery associated with the cheating incident dropped. Richt says he is unsure what action to take against this player, but he did say his program is under control. This may be true if he compares his program with others in the area. South Carolina has had 12 students arrested since January and the school has admitted to 5 major NCAA violations and 7 others. Tennessee has also had 12 players arrested since February, 2004. Georgia Tech had to dismiss a player because he was the designated recipient of several pounds of marijuana sent through the mail. Tech is supposed to have the most intelligent students, also.
It seems to me the recruiting profiles being used by the coaches needs to be refined somewhat. It makes little sense to brag in February about how pleased you are with the recruiting class if you have to unlock the jails at the end of the summer to get them in pads.
