Anyone who has ever attended college can tell you that probably over half of the athletes aren't good students. There is a reason why academic tutors are in such high demand. Also, if anyone thinks for one minute that athletes arent steered towards easy classes and majors then our fricking lying to yourself. Thayer Evans took shite that any realistic person knows, and wrote an article about it and it's shocking to the naive. This shite is so ridiculous it doesnt even make sense.

Exactly. There are some serious allegations in there, though, and this article is calling Miles the mastermind.

Having a best friend who is an athlete, an Uncle who was/is extremely high up in multiple universities dealing with athletes and academics, and a sister who has personally tutored those athletes while being one herself, I can honestly say they are walked through college while multiple people hold their hand in the process.

Exactly. This is getting worse and worse for SI. I think most of us are still waiting for those "earth-shattering" allegations of misconduct to come out.
This is pathetic. The most damning allegation against Miles: he "subtlely" held of two-fingers for academics and one for football"
Has anyone ever watched one of his press conferences? Heard him speak? There's no dobut is that he just screwed up the corresponding hand signals. The national perception of him is that he is a buffoon. Yet now we're supposed to believe that he is actually some sort of sly fox who was the mastermind in some of wide-reaching academic conspiracy?
