Message: [QUOTE="Huskee11, post: 2361650, member: 7171"] A point very well taken, and at the collegiate level it is not limited to Division I. I have often asked myself precisely that question. The last bastion. Why? Because they can. At the big time college level, winning and money-making are most important, so it is convenient to look the other way. Plus, the argument goes, I guess, that athletes are supposed to be tough and this crap is supposed to toughen them up. At Division III, not the same pressure to win, in fact some of the so-called elite schools would probably prefer not to be too good, but some of the coaches have tenure, the lifestyle is good and the job isn't all that demanding, and they hang around forever even though the game and the times have passed them by.
