As the college football season comes to an end we hear about the student athlete's eligibility. It is the same every year; we hear about how some students have not made the grades to play in their bowl game. Most recently USC has said they have three players ineligibly. I do not understand why year in and year out we hear about issues like this. They have all the help they need. There is no reason these athletes should be failing class. The help and tutors are all there and are just a flash of an eye away.
Also we always hear about players who accept gifts from boosters. It has happen again and it involves a USC running back. He has been seen riding in a very expensive SUV. According to the running back the car belongs to his girl friend which was given to her by a business man in L.A.
Along with that there are two Ohio State players who have been in and out of Jim Tressel's dog house. They have been doing so well this season and they have now the two are back in the dog house. I do not understand how athletes who have all the resources and everything going for them find a way to screw it up. There will always be a select few who think they are above all. And they will continue to get caught and get in trouble.
