Test Scores? Simply Turn Colleges Into Farm Teams

USC Coach Larry Smith’s statement that the SAT is “more for students who want to go into professional fields” is astonishing. I thought a university education was for students interested in academics.

Maybe universities should out-and-out hire athletes just to play for the school (and forget going to sham classes).

Or better yet, let the pro teams pay for these “farm clubs.” Let Nebraska educate Curtis Conway. I hope USC will give his spot to a “student.”
