SKCAUB 0 Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 what i don't understand is every time we get a big commit, we cheated. then when he qualifies, we cheated. Sooooo...what is the part you don't understand? Harpers Bazaar says this has been going on with Bamar since, at least, 1929. It is Bamar's culture and legacy.... I lived through the Cheatin' Bahr years.... It wasn't pretty.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

townhallsavoy 2 Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 My understanding is that his high school grades improved enough over the spring semester to allow him to settle for his current ACT score. Right.... Pumpkin eaters. what i don't understand is every time we get a big commit, we cheated. then when he qualifies, we cheated. every time, "i have a source in the (fill in team name here) program that says this is the end for alabama football.....yet we never hear about it. he graduated high school with good grades. why is that such a big deal? its not like graduating is as hard as building the space shuttle or anything. the clearinghouse qualified him. do you HONESTLY think the NCAA would pass up a chance to nail bama if something was wrong? do you HONESTLY think that ANYONE in Louisiana would be willing to help him cheat? that tin foil on your head must be blocking your view.....

He didnt make As and Bs all year. He was in trouble getting qualified by every account. Again, he wasn't in trouble. All along...given no gpa improvement, he needed one more point on the ACT. Even if he didn't kick ass in the classroom, he only needed one more point with his old grades. That's not being in trouble. That's not like Kerry Murphy.

Hmmm....you sounded like you were telling us facts when you said he was getting "A's and B's ALL YEAR"..... Sounds like you might want to watch representing your opinions and spin as fact.... I mean, otherwise it gets confusing when it comes to who we should believe.... Sounds like this guy, might not have had mounds of problems, but there also seems to be plenty to make people wonder about the validity of his "hard work". I like to read facts... and the jokes... Just an observation... Just reading... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DKW 86 7,424 Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 BTW, that 17-18 is just about Community College material... BG, if he had As and Bs all year, we would not be talking about it now. I would assume that he was in very easy courses the second half. You know easy courses, like Sociology, that all students take but only Auburn gets run into the ground for allowing. Anyone want money on him being a General Studies guy in the Home Ec Dept? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DKW 86 7,424 Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 I know of no one under a 21 at AU unless they were a legacy. I however know many with 17-19 at Bama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runswithscissors 33 Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 its not like AU signs only people with 3.5+ GPA and a 67854121310258 on their ACT. quindarious carr scored a 17 michael mcneil scored an 18 mike slade scored a 16 there are some in there who had a lower GPA than LD (he had a 3.1). some scored lower than LD on the ACT also.

BamaGrad03 0 Posted June 4, 2007 Author Share Posted June 4, 2007 I know of no one under a 21 at AU unless they were a legacy. I however know many with 17-19 at Bama. I graduated High School with three of them. The admissions standards at AU are no different than UA. Sliding scale ACT vs GPA. You can get accepted on probationary status with a 17/18 and a decent GPA (just like Bama). Also, your MIDDLE 50% of accepted applicants start at an ACT score of 22. So you HAVE to admit lower than a 21. It's statistically impossible for a 21 to be the lowest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
