Although not theologically interesting, the NCAA has had some interesting conversations with the media recently. The question of ‘pay-for-play’ has been raised and the administrators rightly pointed the conversation back to education. Yet, hesitant as I am to tout college players, I do wonder if we are capitolizing on the backs of education. The sales of college regalia and gear, and the boost of endorsements keeps college ball in the lime light.Where are the academic highlights? The All-NCAA academic honors at the Final 4? and where, oh where, are the college TV spots that we see during the BCS series? CBS has missed academia and so has the NCAA this time around. I will, however, laud the note of the athlete’s ‘major’ on the screen. good job guys.
