I taught at the university for 5 years while Shula and Saban were the coaches. I taught athletes from just about every sport we have, and I never received any pressure from athletics. Under Saban, some of the football players had an athletic department employee come by the class to make sure they were attending class.

Still happens. I had a class with Robert Lester and a few others and everyday right at the start a guy would come poke his head in the door and wave at them making sure they were there.

I know our golf, softball and gymnastics teams are renowned for having some of the best GPAs in the country.
