Re: Clarett - do you blame the NCAA?

its not broken but it could use some tweaks. Like I said they should get some type of allowance for their play, but since most of them r there on fully paid scholarships I can't feel a huge amount of sympathy for them when I've known other college students who r able to take on full class loads, work one and sometimes 2 full time jobs, and they don't have anyone fixing their grades to help them out or getting boosters to "help them out."
