Finding it more and more difficult to waste my time on college athletics.
I think I should have just quit following after Penn State did not get the death penalty.

The NCAA is pathetic

Let's just end this farce and pay the players already.
With this ruling, LSU has no excuse not to be a powerhouse in every sport. We have bullshite classes available to everybody all over the place and would have no problem offering Coloring 1001 as a class.

Louisville should have offered EVERY student hookers, not just the basketball players.
Would have gotten off scot free.

College athletics is simply minor leagues to the NFL and NBA, only slightly more interesting than MLB minor league system. The gameplay is becoming terrible and the front office lacks all integrity.

The NCAA is completely useless.

It is both predictable and pathetic that nothing happens to UNC. This scandal is really more egregious than just giving money to recruits. It reveals how little an allegedly serious academic institution cares about providing their athletes an education.
Certainly there are one and dones, and tutors, and other serious transgressions at any number of schools but creating curriculum and then using it to keep eligible your athletes really does rob them of the only pay they legitimately receive. An education that improves them for the rest of their lives.

If only USC had committed wide spread academic fraud for decades instead of... um... "should have knowing" that someone was paying Bush to leave school early?

Roy always gets away with it because he looks like a Baptist preacher and he did the NCAA a solid and gave them the smoking gun to bring down Dale Brown.

Ole Miss going to get wrecked even worse now.

The NCAA had no jurisdiction in this. This was an accreditation issue. The classes were offered to everyone.

Not shocking that Greg Stankey is behind this.

So this was all a big waste of time and resources to create a smoke screen phantom that didn’t produce anything in terms of actual consequences? Clearly representative of the most inefficient organization maybe in America that still makes and retains enormous revenue. NCAA consists of clowns.

So student athletes make up like 2% of the student body (pulling that number completely out of my arse) but make up around 50% of the participants in the classes? I'm sure athletes weren't encouraged to take these fake classes or anything.
Holy shite, the Pandora's box this thing opened.

The NCAA can not tell any university what classes they have to offer. The university proved multiple times that the classes were in the catalog and offered open enrollment. The accreditor of the school is who is going to have to fix it.
Carolina was absolutely correct in the defense and once they went that way the NCAA knew they were done.
This right there kills the NCAA in any type of case they thought they had.

So at the end of the day, the NCAA basically ruled that UNC is a bad academic institution.
Anyone paying attention already knew this though. Their ROI is shite compared to "little brother's" down the road.
eta: I went out for a little bit with a girl that went to UNC. She was so proud of her school, would talk about how excited she was that she got into the school and couldnt believe it since it was such a prestigious university. SHe majored in some dumb lib arts shite and works the front desk at a hotel now in chapel hill. Classic UNC

Yep. A lot of schools give priority registration to athletes and really smart people.
Open a class to all students but since athletes register first...oh well, our bullshite class is full by the time the non-smart or only sort of smart real students get a crack at it.

I'm not saying this isn't technically correct. What I'm saying is that a whole new way to cheat has been officially been given the go-ahead to commence by the NCAA and they can't do shite about it.
Unless they amend their rules to include something about how, even if a class is open enrollment, if it's shown that a disproportionate number of athletes seem to have been pushed toward those certain classes, then it's an NCAA issue. Even then, how do you prove that?
