Not sure what to think of this. But interesting none the less. Hope some one hasn't already posted this.

About time. Apparently, there's nothing else in this country to worry about these days.

So, which is the worse violation, paying players to pay or creating a cartel that functions as a monopoly and materially harms other member institutions? Oh, that's right, the NCAA doesn't care about criminal acts. Honestly, the NCAA let this go on far too long.

Don't worry, the federal government will fix it.
