Complaining when even fairly toothless APR bites - Redrum - 02-12-2012
Pat Forde takes on UConn ( university president and basketball Coach Jim Calhoun) writhing to get out of NCAA tourney ineligibility penalty for failing to meet even the pillow soft APR.Â

Liked the quip of offering to cut off a little pinkie toe to avoid having the whole foot cut off.

The APR is a sham. The APR was designed to avoid having any impact on schools that know how to play the game of keeping players eligible. The factory schools figured out how to do play the eligibility game long ago, so they aren't affected. The schools that get punished are mostly the poor step-children of the NCAA -- the Charleston Southerns, Southeastern Louisianas, and Sam Houston States of the world. It's a total crock. If Connecticut can't figure out how to beat that rigged system, they truly deserve to be punished just for being stupid.
