       HS Athletes Getting Into College To Play A Sport

       Using ben Holmes as an example when HS Athletes are preparing to
       go on to College to play a sport they must go to their Guidance
       Councilor and fill out the proper NCAA paper work  to get
       cleared by the Clearing House if you don't get cleared then you
       are considered a Non Qualifier and you must go to a Junior
       College and graduate such is the case with Ben Holmes when he
       came out of HS he was a Non Qualifier and that is why he is at
       Dean JC because in order for him to go to a 4 year College he
       has to graduate. If he were a Qualifier coming out of HS he
       could have gone to a JC or Prep School and left after the Fall
       Semester without graduating. The big differences between JC or
       Prep School are Cost $30K for some Prep Schools verses a few
       thousand for a JC and Prep School doesn't count towards your 4
       years of eligibility while JC does

       The athlete must want to succeed academically as much as
       athletically... In thi s case he did not. No excuse only
       resultsl & he did not have h focus & drive to do so...bottom
       line.

       This is why the NCAA is a POS!  I can't wait until the major
       college conferences have no use for the NCAA, which hopefully
       comes sooner than latter.
