Integrity

9/30/10
The crisis of agents jeopardizing the eligibility of athletes is not just present in college football. This is a problem that is currently plaguing multiple sports under the NCAA. However, no matter what the sport is, it always seems to be the same story. The fabric of college sports is tainted by liars, cheaters, and people who intentionally manipulate young players for their own financial gains or self-promotion. The integrity of the sports agent ring is constantly in question. It is obviously wrong for mature adults to do this to young athletes, but what's even worse is the fact that they recieve no punishment for their wrongdoings. The justice system in our society strives to make every case fair, and this is one that needs to be looked at again. It is not only unjust to the athletes, but also to their schools. Just as the players need to be held accountable for their actions, so do these agents.
