The NCAA Staff has been purposefully underfunded for a decade so everybody can blame the NCAA instead of dirty cheating programs for the problem the schools intentionally created. In fact, there are more high profile programs now that are currently or will be on probation than just about ever before. The "NCAA" is an easy target for criticism which is ridiculous considering they aren't given the resources to police the major sports. Blame the collective schools that comprise the NCAA for collective neglect.

BTW a federal court just threw out the Pennsylvannia's Governor's anti-trust lawsuit against the NCAA

Have to agree with Stallion on this. If schools really want the cheating to be minimized(it will never be completely stopped) they need to provide the resources to the NCAA.

Maybe we can have a NCAA tip jar, and prime it with the $20 they charged the lady golfer for washing her car on campus while charging the school with a secondary violation.

Resources or not, the NCAA is broken.

Bring back Sherwood

Using the university water is bad. Taking the Recreational Leisure course is good.

Now is only the time to cheat if your AD doesn't self report.

Bob Hitch is no longer availiable-that worked out so well for SMU. Its a game-you self report and take corrective action the NCAA will slap you. You cheat, then lie then the NCAA will lay significant sanctions or give a Coach a lifetime(10 year) ban. I don't think its well known but the lifetime ban has been imposed on about 50 Coaches by the NCAA. They ought to publicize that more

Anybody know how many of those 50 coaches were from NCAA big time programs, and money
maker schools

If you aren't cheating, you aren't trying.

Collins isn't on the list. Think he might be interested in coming back?

No words can describe any of this. But one comes to mind & that's HYPOCRISY! All of it is pure laughter to the highest extreme.

Does the NCAA truly have long for this world? Only time will tell.
