    Doesn’t this just tell us something about his university? They are obviously not doing that much in the way of teaching their football players.

      I think it says something about the elementary school he went to. University education is advanced past the point of teaching basic concepts. Most kindergarteners are aware of the concept of space. We have all heard little kids say that they want to be an astronaut when they grow up.

        Then you’ve raised the question of why there university would admit him just cuz sports. He’s tarnishing the reputation of every person who graduated from there, which is principally why plagiarism is handled so strictly.

      I think it says that our higher education system holds sports above education but that’s been the case since I was in high school and college. 20+ years ago.

        Yes, agreed. I work for an R1 university and feel some shame about the resources devoted to sports.
