Prior to that you don’t guage risk correctly and assume everything will go right. It’s why young people think they are invincible. Anybody who thinks these kids have a clue about the real world works needs to watch Last Chance U. A lot of these kids have never been taught the value of an education so of course they aren’t going to value it. Which makes it that much easier to exploit them. And just saying oh these kids make choices is weak. A system has been created to take advantage of them. And you blame them for being taken advantage What was it 6 years ago players were going hungry while other people were making millions. Why don't we keep high school going another 7 years and then start college at 25, if that's the case? I'm not so sure it's brain development, or mounting evidence that your decisions were wrong, for people to "grow up". If you default on your credit card at 18, your next credit card you might use a little more responsibly, even if you're only 22 when you get it.

Bigred3588 Posted September 20, 2018 Posted September 20, 2018 3 hours ago, Brass Cannon said: What’s sad is you don’t realize how that’s still just showing how he was conditioned to be exploited and the advisors didn’t do anything to stop it and assisted. Especially since he’s now suing them along with other players for not providing him the education. So what you're telling me here is that he literally had no other choice but to enroll in sham classes? Things must have really changed a lot in the 3 year difference between the time he and I went to college. I distinctly remember being able to choose my own major. He must've been absolutely distraught when he found out he was being forced into a program where he didn't have to go to class or do any homework for those passing grades. Lord knows he shouldn't have to bear any semblance of personal responsibility. IU Hardcore, MikeRoberts and Hurryin' Hoosiers 3 Quote

I’d like to read stuff on Jahmius Ramsey I heard Jahmius Ramsey is a victim of an antiquated amateur sports organization that pays everyone but the underprivileged and woefully disorganized class of persons providing the talent and won't receive his fair compensation through legitimate means, if at all.

Hmm I’m skeptical but I’m sure they are real just like Jan Brady’s boyfriend George Glass. Do you think bolding a single word somehow makes a sentence with no substance mean something’s. And yes you are entitled to an opinion. But one that lacks substance and supporting logic and facts is called uninformed. And that’s what yours appears to be it's Fred Glass....gall Quote

But when you sit in a sham class with no tests, no papers, no grades, you know it's a sham. When my adviser chose fencing for me, and showed my class schedule, that was my last trip to an academic adviser Fencing? Why didn't you take a stab at it? Your adviser may have had a good point!

Popular Post Uspshoosier Posted September 20, 2018 Popular Post Posted September 20, 2018 Louisville insider Demling from their 247 board removed Ramsey from their Big Board and said he doesn’t think there is any chance he ends up at Louisville. Texas Tech is the leader according to some other scouts. Let’s hope he is impressed with HH. Please leave the other junk out of the recruiting threads.

AKHoosier Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 Is he actually going to Hoosier Hysteria? Hope so, and sees the treatment Romeo gets and falls in love with the environment. I want this kid bad, but he just doesn't seem like the type of kid that comes to IU. But the last time I said that was during Thomas Bryant's recruitment, so you never know.

With this year's outrageous Hoosier Hysteria budget it sounds like they're going to pull out all the stops.
