		<description>Yo Wake! Wazzup pal? Luvin me some Carolina down hear.

Srzly, this article should be read along with the article on stu-dent ath--oo--letes which was published right beside the Facebook/Twitter one. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nytimes.com/2011/08/10/sports/time-for-colleges-to-add-education-back-into-the-student-athlete-equation.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://www.nytimes.com/2011/08/10/sports/time-for-colleges-to-add-education-back-into-the-student-athlete-equation.html&lt;/a&gt;

It begins:

&lt;blockquote&gt;Joseph Agnew was once a Friday night superstar. A defensive back, he led his Texas high school football team to consecutive state titles in 2004 and 2005. He was also an A student.

Agnew went on to Rice, a first-rate university with an improving football program. But things didn’t quite work out for him, at least football-wise. The coach who had recruited him left after his freshman year. Agnew struggled to find playing time and had a string of injuries. After his sophomore season, he was cut from the team. The next year, he lost his scholarship and later left Rice. &lt;/blockquote&gt;

Yes &quot;Joseph Agnew is suing the N.C.A.A. over the rule that allowed Rice to revoke his scholarship after a series of injuries.&quot;</description>

		<description>I couldn&#039;t care less about this particular issue, but it seems to me that as a college sports coach - not to mention a university admissions person - I&#039;d want to recruit students who have reasonable, or acceptable, verbal and written communication skills in any case. 

If I had athletic skills and was not a complete narcissist or imbecile,* I&#039;d jump through any communicative hoops - to the point of, gasp, crafting a piece of prose in English longer than a few words or actually talking to another human being on the phone - if it meant I could get an insanely expensive university education for free.</description>
