They're pathetic...…..F'um

I never want to hear a Stanford or Southern Cal fan talk about SEC admissions going forward.

Watch how fast this disappears from view since Singer admitted to the Judge that he did all that he was charged plus more. He is taken a bullet for the folks and he will be rewarded.

Here I was thinking USC or Stanford being private institutions would lower the standards given the right reason. It appears that isn't the case. Someone realized they could leverage a slightly reduced admissions requirement for athletes and they leveraged it.
