Message: [QUOTE="SubbaBub, post: 3098880, member: 523"] Admissions and athletic scholarships are not a zero sum situation. Schools, for the most part, can admit whoever they want and as many as they want. That is why your application is more than just your SAT scores. To prove any one kid was bumped is all but impossible and even if you could, the school was never under any contractual obligation to accept them in the first place. The liability here is between the school and the government for likely fraud and misuse of funds. The real victims here are they schools provided they did not know about these schemes. They were deprived of quality students at the expense of the coaches' payoffs. They thought they were giving a scholarship to a legit athlete. [/QUOTE]
