College Hoops 2017. Hoosier Daddy? Wildcat strike? The Butler did it?

Handyman said:
BTW part of the reason they got nothing was because the NCAA figured if regular students could take the courses there was no unfair benefits to players. So if you are a booster now and you want to pay the players, just pay some random students as well as long as everyone has access the NCAA doesnt have the balls to act on it.

This is why I only watch my team play. The NCAA is a joke.

And i want someone to ask the NCAA how they didn't benefit when some of those players have said that without those classes..they aren't eligible.
If that's not benefiting...i don't know what is.

Oh they benefited but the NCAA only cares if ONLY the players benefit.

That is the loophole...originally the NCAA wasnt going to look into this at all literally because of that. They said it wasnt their job.

That's where Minnesota screwed up...should have just had Jan Gangelhoff write papers for some regular students too...

It would be funny if it wasnt so sad.

You know what is next Adidas will start paying normal students to go to specific colleges. That will shield them from this crap.

Why should we be surprised by this though. The NCAA had tape of Oregon's coach talking about how third parties got athletes to play for him and they did nothing to him. The NCAA stopped caring a long time ago...

The next little school that does anything wrong though will go down hard though so the NCAA can pretend they have power.

You should see the papers the tutors who blew the whistle shared. My 4 year old daughter could write better and I dont have a daughter...

It wasn't that they couldn't conclude their were any violations its that the violations would have hurt the bottom line. Follow the money
