They are members of "JSA" - "Jock Schools of America."

UCLA, Witchita State and G New Mexico are the basketball schools, while SMU, Pitt, Miami, Clemson and the other USC are the schools that excel fz on the football field. * Now, if you paid close attention to that last paragraph, you'll notice that each school has been very recently, is still on, or will soon be on NCAA probation. They are the schools that seem to feel that the athletes need to be reimbursed somehow for their skills on the court or field. A free $20,000 education with free meals, and free room and board isn't enough. Of course it isn't. " Well, none of them have quite reached the level of Georgetown University. The Georgetown Administration has fallen prey to that dreaded disease - "the sports is top at our school syndrome." It attacks those universities unsatisfied m with their academic reputation, if they have one. The disease , then forces the administration to lose all backbone as the n athletic department takes over. Jim Carlen fits in well at c "JSA" member institutions. The only books these people are c worried about are playbooks and checkbooks. The only things these athlete-students are expected to learn is how to a break a 1-2-2 full-court trap press or not screw up on cross- n ^ blocking the defensive tackle. Calculus? History? C'mon. " That stuff's for weirdos. F Georgetown is the latest school to suffer from this disease. Georgetown? Well, they're supposed to be different, aren't J they?

So why is he ere? He is taking up valuable space and money to play in e NBA's farm system and is keeping real students out of liege. The academic reputation Georgetown has will iffer. Ewing isn't going to major in chemical engineering or e-med, so why is he there taking up space while a gitimate student is kept out? Why? Maybe if I were eight inches taller, 50 pounds heavier, tssessed an IQ of 100, I'd understand. Maybe if all I could do this world was block basketballs, run with footballs or hit tseballs far, I'd understand. I don't understand.
