I understand what you're saying - that's why the Patriot League doesn't only weigh grades but also national tests like the SAT, which offer a more standardized look across the country. A kid from a school that you're describing with a 3.0 average will have that, but may not have the SAT's to make it into a Patriot League school. Furthermore, the admissions office can (and do, sometimes) also veto the admission - it's not like at, say, Ohio State, where the athletics department has the power to say whether a kid is in or out based on his ability.

The PL is different than the Big 10 or Big East, and the league's structure and AI is there to enforce the difference. I think the AI is a good way to do that.
