A friend of mine once called college a "four year vacation", and I suppose that that is the case for most kids. But college athletes are in a different class - unlike the rest of us, their careers start the moment that they step foot on campus, not the day that they leave it. For them, college is "the real world", and they have to live and act accordingly.
perhaps you should wait a few years to see if these kids "once were pot smokers" too.


and FYI, college is the "real world" for ALL of us. anything notion to the contrary is merely a figment of your imagination...
