I'd venture to say there aren't too many other programs in the country where the head coach of a Division I football program checks class. And it's an eye-opener for those student-athletes, I guarantee you, when they're five minutes late for class and there's the head football coach standing at the door tapping his foot looking highly displeased.

What surprised me is what we're able to accomplish with the resources we have in comparison to institutions with much larger budgets. That has just baffled me. There are schools out there with huge academic budgets and somehow, with our skeleton staff, the kids just get it done.

If they can produce a transcript showing 14 core courses, then how can you challenge that? I would say that we would follow set admission standards, and if they met those standards, I don't see how you could not accept that.
