[QUOTE="ILL2010MJ, post: 1419717, member: 745996"] These kids are unpaid student athletes who put their bodies on the line every week for schools who reap huge profits and coaches who make millions. Saying they should be grateful for "the programs gracious enough to give them opportunities to be successful young adults" is ridiculously condesceding. Yes, a scholarship is great, but these kids more than earn it with the work and risk they put in. Illinois probably had no choice with Williams and Dorsey if they kept breaking rules (not sure that's "taking the easy way out" when at least Williams was dismissed), but these aren't bad kids. And I'm pretty sure both will have plenty of great transfer options [/QUOTE]
