Actually Duke basketball has had some history when it comes to partying and drinking, and a pretty good amount of players have all said that they smoked bud on a pretty regular basis. No one is going to question anything that that basketball program does and Coach K has the power to make others pretty much turn the other cheek.

Well, why dont We See what comes out in Court and not the Media Reports;)

Just waiting with Baited Breath!:rolleyes:

True to a degree, but I've never heard of members of the basketball team having problems with public drunkeness, urinating in public or the similar problems that seem to have attended the LAX team. And as loathe as I am to say anything remotely complimentary about Coach K, I don't think he would put up with that. Might reflect badly on his image as the coach of the student-athletes and his extra-curricular contracts.

On an unrelated yet related note, the NCCU business school regained its accreditation after a 4 month hiatus. This was announced at a press conference this morning. :)

True...I don't think the basketball players would take it that far either.

Wow! Are you going to take this opportunity to apply?

Do they require the GMAT?

Re: Re: follow-up
 

I don't need nor want a 4th degree.

Look it up. ;)

If you took any standardized tests in third grade, you can just use those scores instead to get in.

Good for you, but just so you know, that's not that large of a number. I'll be starting my third in the fall, and there are probably a bunch of others on here working on their third or fourth degrees, at least.

As to the Duke basketball team having a situation like this; I think a big part of it goes to the "see no evil hear no evil" treatment that big-time basketball and football programs get across the country. I honestly don't think this story would have even broken if it was the basketball team (no matter how good the lacrosse team is, or how big the sport is regionally).

Quality over quantity is what I say.

I'm thinking of getting an honorary phd, maybe a degree from a school in the former Yugoslavia, and a little something something from the University of Phoenix.

Don't forget to get your JD from People's College of Law! Or, if you're feeling elite--Cooley!

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: follow-up
 

Well first I'm going to get my MD from a school in the carribean and then go for the JD. So by next year I plan to have a degree in everything.

What's your point? The fact that I don't need a 4th degree doesn't require commentary.
