In directing athletes to those classes, the complaint says, the university deprived them of the same quality education available to other student-athletes.

I think it could be much more serious (not that the impending problems aren't serious) when a school gets into legal problems and having NCAA investigations --- Take UConn for example, they were ineligible for post-season last year because of grades, GPA, whatever the letters areappst89 wrote:How much more serious than the impending post-season ban and loss of scholaships does the trouble with the NCAA need to be?JCline0429 wrote:The term "stench" stinks....and has connotations beyond the state of our program.

It's Bush's fault...I mean Moore's.JTApps1 wrote:You're right, the football team has had the first 2 issues as well.

So in the case I'd say it is fair to describe the program as having a stench to it as of now.WVAPPeer wrote:Why would it offend me? - I don't know Jason Capel nor any of his assistants - I just hope no one on MMB faces a similar situation, working hard to succeed in an aspect of his/her professional/personal life only to have someone come along say "get the Lysol and remove the stench" once said endeavor turns out to be unsuccessful ---MAD Doctor wrote:WVA,
Lighten up. Not a "'juvenile" indictment of each individual coach's work ethic, but a realistic comment on where our program has been taken(i.e. dumpster fire). The results on and off the court were unacceptable. This caring, hardworking staff had to be held accountable, and that's why they are gone. If my saying that they created a stench offends you, so be it.
