basically all tyrann has to say is that he didn't even know that his picture was on the flyer and he should be ok, right?


Yep. Clowney was in this exact same spot last year. Nothing came of it. The compliance department as LSU is one of the best in the nation, so I'm not worried.

Personally I think the NCAA is a little cautious about throwing the book at this issue. It essentially amounts to them saying "chill out club promoters, we're the only ones who get to pimp out these kids' images for a profit."

How could a player stop someone from printing their face on a flyer anyway? They'll do what they want

What I dont understand is that the NCAA always pumps their chest out about "Most NCAA athletes will be going pro in something other than sports" but I guess rapping/hip-hop is not one of those things you can go pro in.

Exactly. I'd like to hear the NCAA's explanation if they actually tried pursuing this issue.
