So lets clarify the argument, rich schools turn out better students both academically and athletically than poor schools. Marginally, and not causally related. That's because they have more resources at their disposal. There is absolutely zero evidence to show or even to suggest this is a true statement. None, whatsoever. A "weak positive correlation" certainly doesn't. You DO understand that correlation doesn't show causality, right? That further means that rich students have an inherent advantage over poor students. For that reason and many others, we established AA......in order to level the playing field. And we know how well THAT has worked.
