More evidence that the COLLEGE part of college athletics is a farce

Ben Simmons of LSU Tigers ineligible for Wooden Award

One should ask why the heck is he eligible to play?
Also, with his godfather being an asst coach, there couldn't have been any undue influence in recruiting!

Another part of the article:
"This is not the first time a player has been ineligible for the award. Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim wrote in his recent book that Carmelo Anthony was disqualified from the Wooden Award in 2002-03 because he had a 1.8 GPA in the first semester."
Yet Carmelo was eligible to play in the second semester and win the National Championship. :Rolleyes: Boeheim has been cheating for years, and he's not the only one.
