Anti-semitic much?
The fact that you're surprised is surprising.

Bateman was even moved to WR at Utah.Wait
aren't these two QB's still backups at the schools they're at now.
Torching the guy in the media was beneath Saban, he should've taken the high road.
Josh Rosen is an idiot who lacks the common sense God gave cabbage.
The overwhelming vast majority of people who play college football are very much student-athletes. Of the 762 college football programs, only 130 of them are competing at the NCAA DI-FBS level. How many NCAA DIII players are dreaming of the NFL as the next step in their lives?
Do the math, smart guy.
He may have a point re: entrance requirements. Facts are, they are not the same at every school, so there are some very good players that simply can't get into some schools.
The problem with what he said, imo, is that he acts like football players are the only ones with busy schedules. What about basketball players, baseball, crew, swimming, etc., etc.? Additionally, that's how it is at any level when you are in school and playing a sport. High school athletes also have busier schedules than other students. Do we complain about that too?
What about regular students who also have jobs?
Student/athletes have always had extremely busy schedules, it's part of the deal. Don't like it? Quit the team, be a regular student and pay your own way. Otherwise, stfu and be happy that you will leave school without thousands of dollars of student loan debt and get to move on to a career that will likely pay you millions.
Thats the main thing. NFL or not, these players have the opportunity to get a degree and not leave school with a hundred grand in debt. That's a huge thing.
But lets be real, some schools you can be a well below average student and get in if you're a 4* player and the Academic All American lists a lot of those schools put out are total BS. Yeah they have a 3.2 gpa taking classes a corpse could pass.
Agree. That's why I think he does have a point re: entrance requirements. I mean, there a very good players that I'm sure schools like Stanford, Notre Dame and even USC and UCLA would love to have on their teams, but can't get them because the kids don't have the SAT scores or grades to get in.
He shouldn't have named 1 school since there are many schools with lowered requirements. But, Alabama makes for good click bait and UCLA doesn't play them this year. Pretty sure he's aware of both of those facts.
LOL. Well ,all you have to do is see that Alabama and Arkansas listed more Academic All Americans football players than Duke and Vanderbilt, and Stanford . Yeah, OK.
Because Alabama supports the hell out of the players and does what's needed to help them succeed.

The player you think should be suspended, Deshawn Hand, choose Alabama because of it's Civil Engineering program. Michigan was also considered one of the favorites because of their Civil Engineering program.
As I posted earlier, it's no different than regular students - they will get what they put into it. If someone wants an easier degree, they'll take easier classes regardless. If someone wants to take better classes, they can and if the school is worth a shit, they'll support them as much academically as they do atheletically.
For the past like 3 years, Alabama has played more students who have already graduated than any other school in the country. Easy classes or whatever excuse you want to make up, that doesn't happen without a great support system for academics.
But hey, keep making excuses while Alabama keeps on bringing in top recruits - even those who are academically oriented.
Sounds like my Principal days. Whatever went wrong was always my fault.Whenever I didn't perform well enough athletically, it was always the coaches' fault
