Schools "losing their way" over athletics?

Here's a good article about what appears to be a prevalent situation in higher education today. It affects everyone because of the domino effect...even FCS schools if their conferences are weakened by schools "moving up" for promises of "big bucks". For my money...I agree with the author that in many ways, colleges are selling their souls over big-time athletics, and that his quote from former ISU assistant coach Kyle Whittingham is a sad summary of where schools everywhere see themselves...
