At least SMU did things to *benefit* their student athletes
Here, certain UNC officials apparently decided that the soft racism of low expectations justified their decision to encourage minority student-athletes to forfeit their chance at a quality college education.
Problem: Student-athletes are struggling in their classes.
Solution 1: Make their classes so easy that they are not actually learning anything (or even going to class).
Solution 2: Give the student-athletes the resources they need to succeed.
What would you choose?
