Can somebody explain the reasoning that a university is punished if a student athlete decides to leave (not flunk out)?

He's cryin about the rules. He doesn't think he should get penalized if an ineligible athlete leaves by his own choice. Well, don't recruit kids with grade trouble. He knew 100% that Ramar had poor grades when he recruited him.

Pearl said he supports the intent of the rules but worries that schools are being unfairly punished when players leave on their own or transfer to other schools after being dismissed for disciplinary reasons.
What part of that mentions academics?

Essentially what I've heard Pearl say is:

Why punish a school for taking appropriate disciplinary actions via the APR if they are in good academic standing when they leave/transfer/get kicked off/etc?

Is your avatar supposed to be some kind of ironic reminder that we DO NOT care about brains? Your avatar is of a freaking AMATEUR RAPPER / JUNIOR COLLEGE BASKETBALL PLAYER.

If those two things don't spell "RETARD" then I don't know what does.

Judging someone by their music taste and their initial academic choices spells "Retard" or "Bigot" far better than anything Maze has done.
