RE: Darryl Jackson, how can you be denied admission into SMU but be admitted into UCLA? What's the story behind him not getting into SMU?

Seems like a growing number of SMU alums are furious with SMU's Faculty Athletic Admission Subcommittee rejections of athletes who otherwise qualify at most other schools.

re: Jackson

"Anyone with an SAT below 900 (out of 1600; they ignore the new writing section) or a high school GPA below 2.5 must go before the committee, and meet their standards: a recruit must have a 50 percent chance of graduating. In their estimation. Jackson and Hall did not."

Wow those are really low scores.
