UConn's historic season is undervalued by national media because they aren't a traditional blue blood like Duke or Kentucky

Society has gotten too soft — kids need dodgeball, the SAT, and pressure to build real toughness
The fact that we're not playing dodgeball in gym class, and even there should be some type of standardized tests. What happened to the SAT? Like we've gotten so soft on young people that you don't even have to go through like the pressure and stress of having to prepare for that test, take that test, have to get some type of a number. Or dodgeball in gym class. You don't think that this is gonna make people tougher and more resilient?
