Lynn Zinser is a sports journalist/writer for The New York Times. Prior to doing so she graduated from Syracuse as a sports and news writing major and worked in the same position for The Star Ledger. That being the case her academics may not say much when it comes to the politics behind the NCAA however she is very knowledgeable in the field of media and has been exposed to many student athlete cases.
"Academic fraud is among the most egregious of N.C.A.A violations" (Zinser)
"there were warning signs that academic improperties had been taking place, but these warning signs were, for the most part, ignored" (Zinser)
"Florida State did an investigation in 2007 that promptedthe football team to suspend 23 players" (Zinser)
I believe she will help my research because she is not a coach she is not a researcher, but one who is heavily involved in the media. She sheds light on florida state's academic flaws which tainted their brand, by way of brand logic those involved attempted to keep confidential.
