re: Wow, Emmert taking a beating as a stumbling, bumbling NCAA Pres

It came to light that the NCAA actually bought Shapiro a "burner phone" so as to have some discussions with him totally off-the-record and untraceable.
The payments they made to others-if they would've been under $15K-would've never seen the light of day. They were knowingly paying people involved with the criminal aspect of the Shapiro Investigation in exchange for information they could use in their ongoing investigation.
Most importantly, the NCAA's #2 person-who reports directly to Emmert-was approving payments and could easily be construed to have knowledge of what was going on. Emmert's astoundingly set up the organizational tree there so that only two people directly report to him. Which is almost too fantastic to be believed.
He's tarnished his career in a very, very big way with all of this.

So, they paid people for information? Maybe, I am missing something, but what is the big deal?
Everyone one complains that the NCAA doesn't go after people hard enough, that they have no real authority. Well, they don't have real power to get information. But they pay for it, and that is a problem?
