It is the arm of the NCAA that reviews academic qualifications for incoming athletes to make sure they meet the minimum requirements. All recruits have to submit certified transcripts and test scores there.

It's the NCAA sanctioned body that vets players transcripts and test scores for eligibility purposes. Apparently our compliance department has the worst fricking relationship with them in the world because it seems like no one has more issues with them than we do.

Probably we just don't obsess as much over other schools' Clearinghouse issues.

For research purposes, I started a thread on the SECR to hear about other schools issues.

Good idea. I will be interested to hear the results. Would surprise me if we have an abnormal amount of Clearinghouse issues, given that our compliance staff seems to have a very good relationship with the enforcement arm of the NCAA.

Sweepstakes that gives away millions of dollars to one lucky winner. Kinda like a lottery. It was run by Ed McMahon but I think he's dead now.

Craig Loston and Tajh Jones are fairly similar to Eddie Lacy in terms of what they needed to do to get qualified as high school seniors, fwiw. Lacy seemed to be a bit worse off, but not by much.

True. There was definitely some creativity involved with Loston.

Just curious, have you met either of them? If not, what are you basing that statement on?

Anyone know the latest with Leslie? It would be a pretty big blow to lose two big wideouts in this class, or have them not qualify
