Do You Want "Student Athletes" Who Graduate or Champions?

CBK is stuck in a quandary. He doesn't know how to balance it. Therefore, is he a good coach? He wants to be seen more as a father figure than a Champion. Officials don't even respect his gangsta.

"Student Athletes"
that term is and has been an oxymoron for quite some time, they are "officially" pros now and even so, they have every opportunity to graduate if that's what they want, give me the badass, borderline tPOS that used to make up our defense

Athletes that are actually students there to earn a degree are rare these days. Particularly in football and basketball. It’s more like a minor league system with out of control transfers and grade fixing.

No major D1 coach truly care about graduation rates...they care about players maintaining eligibility and wins.

It is really not hard for a LSU athlete to graduate. He is asking them so show the bare minimum of responsibility and some of them cant do it.

I don't think Kelly gives a frick about being seen as a father figure.
The closest thing he is to a father figure for these kids is Daddy Warbucks with that contract.

BK gets paid more than most to WIN football games.
So he should let the players worry about their education and win some damn football games.
He needs to learn that these southern gents aren't like those ND scholars.

Change the "or" to "and". Yes, I want students that graduate and are champions.

Champions.
I, like a bulk of the guys that you need to win championships could give a flying frick if they ever set foot in a classroom.
The only rules I would have are:
show up 10 minutes early to everything
don’t get arrested
and don’t abuse women
If they go to class that’s lagniappe.

Everyone can’t leave after 3 years…I want seniors for sure…they should be graduating if they’ve been in college 4 years.
Took me 5.5 years to get my undergrad…but I didn’t have all that help and free time.

I’ve always said the same thing: unless you’re standing behind them in the math lab cheering when they get a problem right, miss me with caring about their grades. We spend thousands every year on season tickets, parking, tailgating, and concessions to watch a championship product, and that’s not what we’re getting. Sorry, I’m not gonna pretend to take some kind of moral high ground.

I want football players that are committed and have character and integrity. Success on the field and success in the classroom are not mutually exclusive. If I wanted to root for money-chasing, low-character, hired guns with swagger, I'd be a Colorado fan.

Champions, don't give a frick if they graduate or not. Especially now that they can leave on a whim and get paid

Explain this to me like I have a higher than 5th grade education.
