Did some UGA guy say they turn away kids who don't live up to UGA admission standards? UGA, like almost everyone, takes the NCAA minimum. Kids go to military school because they don't qualify, not because UGA expects them to be at the level of normal UGA students.

The only place where there is difference among the schools is how they handle the academic matters of student-athletes. If you think that standard is very high at UGA or UF or wherever, you're crazy.

UGA does not always allow a student who makes the NCAA min. This is well documented.

Again, you guys don't know shite about our program. We've turned them away out of high school because they didn't meet our requirements.

Look into UF's recruitment of Elijah Daniel or last year Omari Phillips.
