... Telling kids not to cheat or rape someone is rather trite, though I understand this sort of thing is repeated regularly in most programs. 

Apparently the University of Sex for Papers needs signs like this:

Sorry, stupac2, guess you have one more reason not to root for Notre Dame: they already have a sign like that.  Kelly referenced it in his press conference.  I am shocked that the sign didn't work.  I surmise that the kids ignored it because it was in ALL-CAPS, and they already feel like Kelly shouts at them all the time.

Kelly's comment when asked if they were recruiting the right kind of players for the school was also baffling:

"I think we've brought in the right young men.  I think we have to continue to do a better job educating them, we have to do a better job providing them the resources. Look, this is never a one-sided issue. We have to internally look at providing our student-athletes all the resources necessary that if in fact they took shortcuts, that they don't.

What other resources do you need to provide students so that they don't blatantly cheat?  A "paper" class like at UNC?  Better tutors?  I bet those guys thought they already had the best tutors ever until they got caught.  If you recruit the kind of guys who have been coddled throughout their entire academic careers, have no personal integrity and aren't ready to do the work in the classroom, they will always find an easy way out.
