It needs to be a hard locked 5 to play 4. With no transfer penalty one re-do is enough.

Just need to get every school to ensure an alumnus is the one to make the decision in their favor whenever the NCAA tries to enforce the agreed upon rules.

No downside to that at all. Nope...none. /s

The ncaa is getting exactly what it earned for being a lying, corrupt, POS puppet for all these years. Let it burn, they will rebuild.

So your assertion is that college sports was more corrupt when the NCAA had teeth than what we've seen since they lost their teeth? That's a take. I don't remember pro players coming back to play amateur sports back then or players being given extra years back then. I especially don't remember partial judges being the ones to make those decisions. I'm not saying it wasn't corrupt, but it's gotten to the point that a booster is able to literally override NCAA eligibility rules to benefit their program in absolutely unprecedented ways.

It’s not the NCAA but ridiculous court decisions without any merit that are the problem.

More? Where did I say that? How could you possibly infer that from my statement

Your statement seemed to infer that the corruptness was so abundant that this is exactly what the sport needed. Which is why I put a question mark at the end of it. Typically a question ends with '?', while a rhetorical remark ends with a '?!'. I did answer if your response was yes, because that take is asinine.

Based on how upset you were with interpreting the question as a rhetorical remark, I'm going to assume your take is it wasn't perfect so let's destroy it completely?

Define fairness. To me, chaos is neither fair nor unfair. It is unpredictable, thus chaotic. It may be fair today and unfair tomorrow.

You sound like a half wit. Nobody is upset, I was surprised you thought I said the NCAA was MORE corrupt before. My statement said nothing of the sort.

You don't know the difference between a question and a rhetorical remark, but I'm the half-wit.

Let me see if I have some crayons so I can simplify that you are getting upset and making assertions that aren't there.

Do what?

They're responsible for organizing and hosting all championship events across every division in every sanctioned sport except CFP.Also govern eligibility rules for athletes in those sports.

Who the hell would want take on those tasks if it's desolved?

Since you have a fairly unique experience here, is there anything NAIA does you like to see incorporated by the ncaa? Obviously short of straight up rolling back the last few years of clusterfrick.

Well, we've learned that you don't know a thing about chaos



Nothing about it is fair. That's why we created society with rules and regulations to replace the chaos we were living in.

Chaos isn't fair. It's dangerous and unpredictable. We designed systems built upon rules and regulations to protect us from the chaos.


The NCAA is attempting to perform their role, and they are getting no help from the institutions that agreed to the formation of a regulatory body not beholden to one conference or region, but to oversee every conference and team and hold them accountable if they break the rules.


The courts really aren't as effective as people want to believe, their rulings can easily be ignored, just like the courts can't touch the NFLs policies and requirements for player eligibility (if they could, then the rule about not being eligible to play before being 3 years removed from high school would have been struck down decades ago. Ask Maurice Clarett how effective the courts are against the NFL)


All the NCAA needs right now is for the member institutions to support the decisions and rulings they make. If Ole Miss wants to try and subvert the NCAA's authority, then they should be punished by the SEC and the other conferences and every school that is a member of the NCAA.

Quit making the NCAA the pariah and start making the schools who are subverting the universal rules they agreed to the outcasts.

Basically: Sankey and the SEC need to grow some balls and say they support the NCAA and will enforce their rulings on all matters. If a player ruled ineligible by the NCAA plays, then any victory shall be vacated.

That goes for every conference commissioner

LMAO! How many of those sports make money?
ALL of them except men's CBB and the NCAA finances
everything because of one sport and when they lose the TV rights to March Madness (they will) they'll be a organization in name only.
