was the "illegal" team member actually enrolled in the school with just not enough units, or did they not go to the school at all?

to my understanding they were graduated already from the school..
and im hearing there could have been 1 other student as well!
His talent is out the window the moment he took athletes to Daytona that did not belong on the team. I do not care how many national titles he has won with other teams, who is to say this is the first time he has done this? How is this blown out of proportion? He basically STOLE a national title from SFA small coed because he knew very well that he was cheating. He has not only embarrassed members of the team, who will forever have to live up to people knowing they were members of the team that cheated, but also the University.
Ok so they didn't help him recruit, do you think the University of Louisville gives James Speed the ok to accept athletes into the school that do not meet the qualifications to get into the school? Or do you think University of Kentucky puts Jomo on their private jet with Coach Calipari to go around the nation and recruit? Doubt it.
I also wish I could shimmy ACEDAD and Sharkdad's posts multiple times because something needs to be done to keep this many from hurting another program.
I would wager that a majority of the teams who compete in Daytona don't receive support from their schools. I know mine didn't - we could compete but only if we paid for it all ourselves. It's just something you have to work with, but it doesn't give anyone an excuse to cheat.
In addition, and not that recruiting problems makes it okay, but he doesn't need help. CSULB is the only State Univ that has a competitive cheer program in all of So Cal, maybe even the whole state. I'd rather add someone who never cheered and teach him stunting, then cheat. I can't help but wonder what was go throwing to his mind as they announced their name in first place and saw SFU standing there, knowing they deserved the title "Was it, YES!!!! Cheating was so worth it" or "Start the car!"
Anyone who thinks this isn't a big deal, the next team under USASF's radar should be yours.
I would have thought the contrary. I would think because cheerleaders support and cheer for their school teams, administration would, at least, support them financially for a trip to Nationals. Since insurance is necessary for practice to compete and competition itself who is purchasing the necessary insurance for college teams throughout their season?
