OT: NCAA... what a joke

[PiscatawayMike]

As Jerry Tarkanian once famously said, "The NCAA is so mad at Kentucky, they're going to give Cleveland State another year of probation."

Yes, Fordham is clearly the biggest offender in major college sports . . .

 

[RU_DIO]

I honestly would have thought those violations would warrant a slap on the wrist.

 

[RW90]

So let me get this straight. There is a $75 daily recruiting limit but it's perfectly legal now to offer recruits millions of dollars in NIL?

we are currently living in a college basketball clown world

 

[NY AGENTMAN]

Can there be any bigger hypocrisy in the world than going after Fordham for giving out tickets to games. At this point just get rid of the NCAA and have a separate entity run college basketball

The NCAA is a cartel for the blue bloods

 

[Bayonnebomber79]

The NCAA is a complete joke. Its time for the money sports in the major schools to move on and form an organization run like the pro sport leagues. We are no longer watching student amatuer myth the NCAA loves to promote

 

[LotusAggressor_rivals]

Just when you think it can't get more ridiculous.......

 

[runrutgersrun]

Unfortunately, college sports is so screwed up from the NCAA being "allowed" to "run" things for so long that no one else now wants to assume the role of overseer. The whole environment has been a lawsuit or two from blowing up in everybody's face for decades. Eventually we'll be able to follow the money to whatever "solution" shakes out. But, then again, that kind of action (or inaction) is probably what got us here in the first place, isn't it? Go RU!

Classic NCAA. Making an example of someone who is really no one. Players at major programs are literally turning their umbrellas upside down to catch the torrential downpour of money, and they're punishing Fordham for this? This is a clear example of their selective enforcement ethos.

Yes. and taking pictures is a major NCAA violation

The NCAA is truly the most inept organization

 

[Plum Street]

lol

Since the NCAA is such a weak organization now, couldn’t Fordham sue the ever-loving **** out of them for non-consistent application of their own policies?

At this point I can’t see the NCAA winning any suit thrown at them regardless of its objective.

Thats exactly what Fordham should do.
