Without this financial support, operating a college would be nearly impossible. As college presidents we feel that the recruiting violations are something that should be dealt with in each individual program. The amount of positive influence that these programs have on our college far outweighs the detrimental effects felt by NCAA sanctions. As a school, it is important to hire a coaching staff in each sport, which operates with integrity as well as has the ability to win. One way to promote a school as a quality institution is to have a college with an honest group of hardworking coaches, who are dedicated to win.
College athletes are interested in gaining an education along with having a sport to participate in.
Colleges involved in NCAA sponsored events gain the publicity which helps to steer future students and athletes in the direction of that institution. The public needs this as a way to help and direct students into something that is so important in the quest for the American Dream, a college education. The question of what the current college sports offer to offset the costs in terms of lower quality of education is a prominent debate in this day and age. This question, however is nothing more than ludicrous. If this proposal is adopted, the result will be lower quality of education.
