Insanity masquerading as a lawsuit...

This lawsuit is being pursued by non-qualifiers who were then forced to go to junior college to become eligible then to go to Division I schools and be on scholarship...

They claim the NCAA determination of who is "qualified" and who is a "non-qualifer" is arbitrary and unfair...and it is especially unfair to minorities....
even though nothing at all in the wording of any rule in NCAA that determines qualifying is in any way specifically dealing with race or ethnicity!!

They claim NCAA disqualifies certain kids from being eligible to go straight from high school to D-I and play and be on scholarship..

But note this...
"Many student-athletes rely on athletic-based financial aid to get a college
education, including "a disproportionate number ... [who] are from
communities of color or who grew up in an at-risk environment.."

In the end we actually see that the real motivation for this (read at the bottom of that link) is that some people think that by
requiring a kid to GET decent grades, you are a RACIST and since a disproportionate number of kids who are non-qualifiers are minorities...
It isn't just enough for them to claim NCAA is racist -- and to stop this policy -- they, of course, want some money paid to them as a settlement!!

Of course they don't point out that in the big time sports such as football & basketball -- a HUGE and disproportionate percentage of the kids who DO play, who do succeed, and who do move on the professional sports ARE also minorities....
is this lawsuit gonna correct that "imbalance"???
