I know of circumstances where D1 schools wanted a player (who had a learning disability) who had a 2.7 GPA and a very low SAT. One school was willing to fly him down tutor him for a couple weeks for the SAT and have him retest.

That wasn't USC was it? They just got hammered for something very similar. From the USC violations report:

quote:
In summer, 2001 when the former associate athletics director ordered the tutor to provide tutoring services to student-athletes 1 and 2, the tutor, the academic advisor and at least one other academic advisor knew that it was impermissible for the institution to provide tutoring to transfers who were not yet enrolled
