Lost Letteman is a notoriously B1G operated venture.
Secondly, Lost Letterman illustrates their own ignorance by failing to simply understand the meaning of the words as quoted.
Key was clearly saying that the academic support is so good at SCAR that you have to try to fail, you have to want to fail, in order to fail. Otherwise, the support SCAR offers through our Dodie Academic Learning Center is so exemplary that a student-athlete stands a very good chance of succeeding in the classroom.
Oh, wait, errrr ... obviously you also suffer from a failure to comprehend the written and spoken word as well.

Oh yeah, he's the latest big time recruit to leave GA for an out of state school...at least that just happened the other day, so another one might have already left.
For his point however, I think he's right. USC has an awesome tutoring and academic enrichment center (the Dodie.) The coaches are also on top of the players classroom progress and monitor attendance. They've made it so the players would have to work harder at not taking care of their academics, than just doing what they're supposed to be doing.
USC has 19 varsity sports reporting APR this year, 7 of them scored 1000, that's a good percentage for any school.

Clearly that's what he meant.

Well, yes, clearly it is ... with the clear exception of only the most obtuse and jealous among us.

That is true for almost every school. You have to actively try to skip class and assignments to fail. To get a C all you have to do is go to class and do your tests. Almost zero effort is required. If you fail out of college, then you are a tard.

Why are you reading up on one of our commits? :rivalry:
By the way, tell me how much our academics matter when this guy is sacking UGA's QB.
eta: Anyone who thinks their football players don't have an easier time than regular students is fooling themselves.

Absolutely. And you obviously interpreted his words as they were meant to be interpreted. Whereas the OP, a Dawg fan being passively vitriolic about losing another instate player to SCAR, has reading comprehension deficiencies and is a poor reflection upon his own academic worth, or lack thereof.

Only thing easier for our football players than academics is beating Jawja.

With all the help these athletes get academically, you do have to try to fail. That is including UGA.

With the overall record being 46-17-2, I am guessing the football players at USC fail alot then.
ETA: for the record I understand that the last 3 season has allowed you to be able to puff up with pride a little bit. However as I am sure that most of the rest of the SEC (outside of Columbia) is aware; this crazy game of football did not just begin in 2010.
BTW-Congratulations on receiving a verbal commit from the state of Georgia on a kid that is 2 years out from signing.
