I agree with everything you good folks are saying.. I am deeply disturbed by this... our leadership and system has failed us, and this from an institute that takes pride in its ability to teach analytical, systematic thinking.
It took Miami 6 years to fight its way back from a probation.. and we arent Miami (in terms of football) .. SMU has not made it back in 20 years..
Dave Braine and Carol Moore need to hit the road immediately... (and I still say ultimately its the students responsibility to perform, but it seems that some approached their job of support half hearted at best, while others were simply asleep at the wheel)
It seems to me that our athletic program has been thrown against the mountain... the leaders hired to run it are resposible, and should have to pay a price.
