NCAA fears of collapse saving Miami

As a "U" fan...


If this doesn't get them the Death Penalty, then the Death Penalty will never be administered to another college football team.

"if the 64 biggest schools in America break away and form their own super-structure"

What would the "super-structure" look like? Who would operate the "super-structure"?

Sounds like a building more than an athletic organization!

There are some pretty heavy criteria to meet for them to get the DP.

I know... and after looking at this laundry list, I'm pretty certain they have met the bulk of it.

After what the NCAA handed out to UofSC for two players... the bar has been set for incremental punishment. tOSU is worse than UofSC and the U is way, WAY worse than all the above.

ha ha.NCAA is a nobody organization that schools could walk away from if they wished to start their own league or another governing body.But don't think the concept being waived around in this article isn't being discussed. If your school is only thinking expanding their conference then they are probably already behind the curve.

I think they are definitely going to form a new one... and over time it will resemble what we have now but with less schools to oversee.

Would the NCAA remain for the other divisions or would they form another governing body as well?

I have no idea if they will survive. I know several schools are sick and tired of all this BS. They see the NCAA for what they are and would rather have a sea change in the landscape of college athletics (football) including a governing body and conferences. The schools involved would surprise many.

I think you are absolutely right on all points.

Of course, there is that problem of the money...

The NCAA is worthless IMO. But the irony is that it seems to be exactly what the schools wanted...they created it and have morphed it along the way.

I could see this happening as long as the $$ is there. To me it sounds like the NCAA has a "Lack of institutional control" and "Failure to monitor".

These schools pay them to control the situation and monitor the many but every year HUGE off field allegations come to light and its becoming a broken record!

It sounds like they're already getting the DP.

Or was that the Double A Double V... I forget.

Not within the 5 year window for the Death Penalty.

tOSU ,Miami, Oregon , Auburn and the list will go on, it will never stop in College football ,the pressure is to high to win,get top recruits. Every school breaks the rules some just are slicker at it.
