Coach Carter states that nobody is expecting the players to go to college and that he thinks that it’s a problem that they only focus on basketball. He remains calm at the beginning of the meeting in the library and says that it is about all of them.

Also, to some people, college is a waste of time. If the person actually got into the NBA/NFL they could’ve earned a lot
