I disagree with both

The school was 100 percent complicit in this. Either they offered meaningless classes to students or they facilitated athletes' cheating. It has to be one or the other, it can't be neither.

Separate and distinct issues *

Doofus.

Yeah that is accurate *

It’s entirely relevant and predictive of the NCAA stance on all of this. Just like the NCAA ruled that it’s not their place to crack down on academic standards, I expect they will (continue to) take a similar approach to NIL and employment issues. They will continue to reap any financial benefits of the sport while continuing to avoid any accountability re standards for student athletes.

I would also add

that Notre Dame doesn't really have the high ground on these sorts of issues anymore. Although we all know that Brian "none, zero, zip, nada" (or whatever that asshole said) isn't to blame.
