They do make themselves eligible. Are you implying that someone else is taking the classes for them?

Why do they need a college coach being paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to take over their high school curriculum?



Maybe because the college coach knows a lot more about what the kid needs to do to qualify for admission at his respective employer.

Probably old browser or they don't have their plugins up to date.

Basically, since he didn't take academics seiously when he was 15/16, then screw him, right? Send his arse off to JUCO for a couple years as punishment.

For all you know Paige and his parents were unhappy with the situation at Pensacola and asked Bama's coach if he had any advice on how Paige could increase his chances of qualifying to play at a 4 year school. What's so wrong with that?

Hey a-hole, after you're done fricking yourself you care to be helpful and at least offer another idea?

And not something as vague as what you've followed up on.

It's actually the opposite case for many of them. When they're in 9th/10th grade they don't forsee themselves playing football in college so they don't take the core courses they need to qualify. Then they become big prospects as juniors and seniors and have to try to make up a bunch of courses senior year and even into the summer before enrolling in college.

Who the hell is Darius page and why do you give a crap. Landon Collins is at Bama because his gf got a Benz. Now that is how you do it. Gotta give it to CCNS.

Make sure your browser window isn't zoomed or anything. I think it has to be a setting, not a failed plugin/browser. Horizontal rules (those lines) aren't top-of-the-line features...

Don't listen to this guy.. he has no idea what he's talking about.


First of all, most you are probably old as dirt... modern browsers are not meant to work with those gigantic fonts for really really old people.


Secondly, use firefox. Most of you are probably on explorer, which is just spamware. They don't even use standard HTML/CSS code. Get a new browser. If that doesn't work... pay somebody to come fix your crap.

The kid was a major pawn in a power play and you know it. All the adults around this kid have failed him.

And, you know what's wrong with your question.

There is something seriously wrong when college football assistants get involved with high school kids and their academic progress and standing.

Look, I have two teenage sons that are involved in high school sports. I see all the political games that are played by adults towards young boys with athletic talent. I see kids getting used all the time, because of their athletic talent.

I can't figure out why some are there and some aren't though. Would seem like it would be an all or nothing kind of thing.
