One thing I wish student athletes should be able to do is major in football or basketball and let their meetings and practices count as coursework because that is why most of them are there in the first place. It makes no sense why some of these kids who are academically inept or aren't willing have to take up space in college classes they don't want to be in.

A number of universities actually do that....maybe not so much major in football or basketball, but if they major in sports related degrees, their meetings and practices can count for credit hours towards their degrees.....
