This was not my first thought either, some Big Ten grads (usual suspects around here) poked this jab my way the day before I posted it. It was stupid of them to do so, but the connection, however tenuous is enough for those who dislike ND to say something, so it in my mind it is something that should be on the board for us to talk about here on the football board...that is all.
Those clients did not actually show up for any of the schools' teams, however. They just used the fraudulent identification as walk on athletes to gain admission to the school.
I've seen no reason to suggest Nate's admission was questionable. I don't mind reading about the scandal on this board, however, if only to gloat that ND is NOT involved.
