The NCAA’s initial eligibility requirements are already a pretty big joke to the writing staff at Anchor of Gold (spoiler: Forrest Gump was eligible to play college football), but today, the National Association of Basketball Coaches proposed that they should be even laxer than they already are:
Men’s and women’s college basketball coaches are proposing the NCAA eliminate standardized testing requirements from initial-eligibility standards, calling exams such as the SAT and ACT “longstanding forces of institutional racism.”
Cool, so we’re just going to base initial eligibility on whatever GPA the basketball factory prep schools that a scary number of these guys already attend deems suitable?
