you get 800 for filling in your name
We arent requiring our players to have 1400's so the bar has been lowered considerably and the same articles
(See SB Nation in the 2015 timeframe) point out that Kelly indicated most if not all of his scholarship players would not be accepted otherwise
Certainly these folks have to maintain standing once they are accepted and clearly this may or may not occur at some other schools but they arent required to take Calculus, they arent required to take two languages, and there are some easy majors so let's not kid ourselves.
But please can we stop with the admissions standards bullshit?
It is considerably lower than their peers
