6 schools to be notified of serious Level I NCAA violations
- Thread starter Franisdaman
- Start date
Note that I....I mean, Fran is not on that list!!!Shocking!
A Boston Herald reporter once asked Coach Cal how he failed to notice that his players were wearing diamond studs. “I don’t walk around carrying these jeweler’s glasses,” Coach replied.
The Boston Globe, in a fine series in the mid-1990s, found that UMass’s most prominent stars, including Camby, were on academic probation, a fact not shared with the general public. Calipari battled to ensure that his sports department, rather than the university’s academic arm, maintained control of player academics.
Okay...so now you are comparing Fry to Calipari as far as ethics go? Right.
Your credibility just took a nosedive.

Sounds like the fit is about the hit the shan in college basketball. Long overdue.
Well either that OR these 6 teams, along with 2 others, will all be invited to a special early season tourney with the word "classic" somewhere in the name.
No matter the bad deeds, I would be surprised to see the hammer get dropped hard on this list of "blue bloods".
And you would be right. When I looked at the transfer "bylaws" (they're not rules as per the NCAA) relevant to last week's conversation about the Moss transfer I saw the specific by bylaw (like 14.5.2 or some such organizational numbering) on "waivers". Its automatic if the athletes school become ineligible to compete in the sport for which the athlete received the scholly. It appears, and these rules are prolix to say the least, that the athlete does not even need to seek a waiver, waivers are automatic, but merely notify the NCAA of the transfer.
Legend, I'm sure you know that there are a lot of Iowa fans who believe any team that wins more than Iowa is cheating.
The new NCAA steering committee lead by John Calapari, Tom Izzo, Bill Self, Coach K, Urban Meyer, Nick Saban and Bobby Petrino are charged with the task of rooting out crime and corruption from college athletics. They’ve vowed to take a hard look at what’s going on down at East Tennessee State to get to the bottom of it. They say taking action there should take care of things and restore integrity to college athletics.
