Lets all take a deep breath and go through this with the measured and analytical response it deserves.Jameis Winstons dad, Antonor, so he can get his degree in engineering.This, of course, flies directly in the face of what Ed OBannons attorneys have told us since the Death Of The NCAA trial began last week. Student-athletes, they claim, are athletes first and students only as a way to stay eligible.MORE: | | | And that got me thinking: if Jameis Winston spends 40 hours on football and untold hours a week on baseball Bobby Hull Jersey (he plays both sports at FSU), how in the world, according to OBannons attorneys, will he find the time to earn a demanding engineering degree?We have dual-sport athletes studying here right now, says William Leparulo, an academic advisor in the FSU College of Engineering. Not once has a football player come in here and said, Im a football player, you have to give me a watered-down schedule. I say bring on the student-athletes because theyre driven; they know whats at stake. Its going to be hard, but if life wasnt hard, everyone would be an engineer.Wait, this cant be true. Because OBannon and every other whiny, needy, gimme-gimme hanger-on Brent Seabrook Jersey tells us theres no po sible way to go to cla s and play a sport. There just arent enough hours in the day.There arent enough hours for Winston to play a sport, go to cla s and deal with his media obligations.There arent enough hours for Winston to play a sport, go to cla s and go on the Heisman Trophy rubber chicken banquet circuit.There arent enough hours for Winston to play a sport, go to cla s, and play the last month of the season with the state attorney investigating his alleged role in a sexual a sault case and still win a national championship and Heisman Trophy.There arent enough hours for Winston to play a sport, go to cla s and visit sick children at Mount Sinai Hospital.Where in the world does Winston find the time to, in OBannons words, take the Artem Anisimov Jersey easy way out with junk cla ses so he can focus on what is truly important sports?Weve never strayed from our plan that (Winston) is going to be in college until he gets that degree, .MORE: | | Heres the problem, people: instead of criticizing a grown man who says he took the easy way out and declared he was an athlete first at UCLA and all but ignored all things academia, we celebrate him as a trailblazer who will get players their fair share of, what else, money.Frankly, I dont care who gets paid or how much they get paid. I dont care about extended healthcare or more years to earn a degree. Give the players everything they want and deserve.What bugs me is the sham of academia for some players who have no busine s going to college. If you dont think those 1,100 NCAA presidents will suddenly change their collective thoughts about reduced academic entrance standards for athletes after the lo s of everything in Brandon Saad Jersey this trial, youre sadly mistaken.Once the OBannon case signals the end of the NCAA as we know it, well no longer hear about players taking the easy way out or being steered to easier majors so it wont conflict with the 40 hours spent on their sports.Academic standards will increase and students really will be students first and athletes second and theyll be paid for it. There will be CM Punk Jersey strict rules for eligibility and payment, and severe consequences for those who arent eligible or run afoul of the law.Because despite what OBannons attorneys will have you believe, many current players choose their majors and go to cla s and graduate. Many realize the importance of bothexcelling at their sport and earning a degree.You hear (at the NCAA trial) what is supposedly typical, that athletes arent doing their part academically, Leparulo said. We dont see that here. Maybe its an anomaly. But they know what they have to do and they do it."Somehow, they find time. Somehow, there really are enough hours in the day.
