Rest easy, everyone. The NCAA is on top of all of this.

Weird.

At this point just say no. He's playing.

This is the dumbest timeline. We've got 2nd stringers getting paid who knows what for their name, image, and likeness that has close to zero real value from NIL slush funds and the NCAA punishes a kid that was looking for a real job.

 

[DerHntr]

They should just let him pay them $427. It’s not like they are poor players anymore.

The dumbasses that are making these type decisions want the United States Congress to further empower them thru legislative action.

College Athletics is broken, but this group will not fix it.

I wonder if UT can get this case heard in front of a crying judge in Calhoun County?

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

It's like they put the governing body from 1940 in suspended animation and they just reanimated that group.

OR

Maybe these are the same people that do PR for the WNBA.

They just don't follow current events at all.

There is definitely a resounding case of tone deafness afoot for sure.

 

[Puppers]

I didn't think the NCAA was allowed to make someone ineligible

Man, if they find out about the free Chick Fil A sandwiches I gave Johnnie Cooks & Donald Ray King back in 1981, we're screwed.

College administrators doing college administrator things.

At this point just say no. He's playing.

Honestly that's what I would do.

There’s so much money at stake, they might get sued by the companies sponsoring specific players for NIL.

 

[dickiedawg]

File lawsuit, get injunction, court case drags into next year, at which point it’s moot.

Fact:

This is the NCAA trying to punish UT for coming back and stealing the game from MSU last season!
