A) If you want to play in the NCAA, you have to play by their rules.

B) If you can't do the time, don't do the crime.


This is childish and would only make sense if "the time" wasn't disparate or the "crimes" arbitrarily enforced or the rules disproportionately applied.

Or even better, ex post facto laws/rules like the NCAA created for USC...which in your dopey real world criminal sing-song slogan are illegal.

Why don't you go tell black people in the South who lived through the 60's that if they wanted to eat in a restaurant in Alabama they had to play by their rules.

The University of Southern California and all other universities across this country don't fork over their due process rights because they happen to play sports...just like you don't waive your fourth amendment right to privacy when you buy an airplane ticket...but I guess you suppose that you should.

The NCAA isn't God...they are just a bunch of stuffed shirts like the good folks at Enron - failing miserably in their oversight duties and reform is needed like in any business.

You're wasting your time posting this Trojan Ace; most CFB fans here think in petty terms of program vs. program...and giggle gleefully when the Spanish Inquisition comes calling. They don't want to admit the NCAA has major oversight issues because they've bowed down to this fraud for years.

I think most would actually agree with this, but to suspend all current sanctions for any school is ludicrous. You can argue that rules aren't enforced equally (I don't agree regarding USC), but the fact remains that schools under sanctions were caught breaking NCAA rules.

Fine, feel free to leave. I'm pretty sure the NCAA is a "voluntary" organization that isn't forcing any university to be a member. But don't expect to have the NCAA allow its other member schools be allowed to play you unless they also want to leave. And most don't want to risk anything for the chance at "freedom" that you're preaching.

USC doesn't have to follow their limits in regards to penalties and scholarships but don't expect to get to play the other NCAA member schools.
