I made a tirade a few weeks ago about how much I dislike the “one-and-done” aspects of college basketball, and I wrote that I thought the rule made a mockery of the collegiate process. However while I certainly dislike the rule, I certainly don’t think the current “student-athlete” academic experience is one ripe with the pursuit of knowledge. Take University of Buffalo point guard Andy Robinson who tried to get someone to write a paper for him by posting this ad on Facebook:

I am paying anybody who have read the book ‘there are no children here’ by Alex Kotlowitz $30-40 which in some classes you have to read at UB (even more money if you have to read the book a little more!!) to write a 3-4 page paper, on a couple questions which was assigned.

That’s right, he placed this ad on Facebook, a service designed to allow the world to see your posts. The blinding stupidity of Robinson posting an ad on Facebook to assist in cheating is only rivaled by his command of the English language. He’s has been done suspended indefinately from team.
