good to see the ncaa is patrolling the NIL thingy.  many (including me) thought this was essentially without boundries, giving schools carte blanche to "pay" their "student-athletes".

but ohhhh noooo...florida state, whodathunk, is getting it's pee pee slapped for "violations".  anything to do with the stink they made about getting screwed out of getting in to the college football superbowl?  coincidence?

can you believe there are rules governing pay to play?  only if you don't send charlie(baker)a Christmas card and maybe a gift certificate to your schools bookstore err sumpin.  sure hope before MU has a beef with the ncaa, they have any of our prospective guys sharing an uber ride with "one call"  or have them take a test for ya

"...the assistant coach drove a prospect to a meeting with the head of the program's most prominent NIL collective during the prospect's official visit to campus. At the meeting, the booster offered the prospect $15,000 per month and encouraged him to play for the Seminoles."

Here's the NCAA link
https://www.ncaa.org/news/2024/1/11/media-center-nil-related-recruiting-violation-occurred-in-florida-state-football-program.aspx

Wonder which one of these is the most damaging? Is it the 1 year disassociation from the collective?

The university, enforcement staff and assistant coach used ranges identified by the Division I membership-approved infractions penalty guidelines to agree upon Level II-standard penalties for the university and Level II-aggravated penalties for the assistant coach. The decision contains the full list of penalties as approved by the Committee on Infractions, including:

Two years of probation.
A two-year show cause order for the assistant coach, including a suspension from the next three regular-season games, a two-week restriction on recruiting communication, and required attendance at a NCAA Regional Rules Seminar attendance.
A restriction from off-campus recruiting during fall 2023 for the assistant coach.
A three-year disassociation from the booster.
A one-year disassociation from the collective.
A $5,000 fine plus 1% of the football budget.
A 5% reduction in football scholarships over the two-year probationary period, amounting to a total reduction of five scholarships.
A reduction in official (paid) visits in the football program in the 2023-24 academic year by seven. The school also will not roll over six unused official visits from the 2022-23 academic year.
A reduction in football recruiting communications for a total of six weeks during the 2023-24 and 2024-25 academic years.
A reduction in the number of in-person recruiting days during the 2023-24 academic year by six evaluation days during fall 2023 and 18 during spring 2024.

I am sure this is the first time this coach did this. Do you think  the NCAA will dig any deeper than this one instance?

Really? I would have thought "pee pee slapped" is worth 3 points alone.

NIL, aka the ruination of college athletics, aina?

[WhiteTrash]

The ACC seems to have a target on their backs. I saw that the other conferences (B10,SEC,B12) rejected SMU standard payout for a Power 5(4) school. I assume that is money that gets comingled in the ACC pot. Basically the ACC has a Group of 5 member. (A year earlier Cincy, UCF, Huston and BYU were all voted full shares as P5 members)

Couldn't be happier about this.

NIL, aka the ruination of college athletics, aina?

There have been dozens of "ruination of college athletics" worries over the decades. And yet here college athletics are, more popular than ever.

The NCAA had many opportunities to get in front of compensating athletes, but they resisted it and resisted it and resisted it. They wanted it all for their suits and their coaches and their other rich folks. So here we are, with NIL.

I like that major-sport athletes are finally getting a piece of the pie that wouldn't exist without them.

If you don't, I doubt you're being forced at gunpoint to watch college athletics at all, Doc. Not even in the hellscape that is downtown Milwaukee.

  yes, you may like it and yes, you may believe the "student-athletes" are due their "fair share" since they are the main reason for the generation of buku cash, but it's still the ruination of college sports.  unless they get control of this, it's going to tear college sports apart.  there is way too much room for "waste, fraud and abuse". 
 
   florida getting the hammer?  something doesn't smell right there.  they had the chutzpahto objecting  to the process by which they were left out of playoffs and hey, honey...who's at the door?

we cannot have the ncaa remaining as the judge, jury and executioner.  maybe if there were 2-3 outside arbiters.  the arbiters would be from a pool and remain anonymous to minimize outside influence, if that were possible.

   i don't really know what the best way to go about this is, but right now, it's set up very poorly.  kinda like using the IRS to quiet things down

what's next?  a salary cap?  a luxury tax?  so much for the mid majors et.al.

  and you thought marcus howard took a lot of shots??

The NCAA will always be the judge, jury and executioner. That what it was formed to do (along with other responsibilities). That is like saying the Supreme Court should not be the final word in litigation.

Directing ire at the NCAA is fine but is essentially the same as getting mad at the army for going to war. The army doesn't make the decision they are just the "tool"; the NCAA is the same "tool" for the member schools.

Nads, tell me if I'm wrong, hey?

I say yes, you say no.
I say red, you say green.
I say half empty, you say half full.
I say elephant, you say donkey.
I say never again, you say from the river to the sea.

So, supporter of numerous antisemites ... is this post somehow suggesting that I'm antisemitic?

Why would you even bring up Israel in this thread? You've gotten tired of being a hypocrite in the actual Israel thread?

You realize that the NCAA had nothing to do with the college football playoff selection right? 

Also, Florida State has accepted the proposed penalties - not a complaint out of them. Do you think they would have done so if they thought there was some conspiracy involved?

The easiest way to settle this all down is to just allow the schools to pay the players. The money is going to get to them regardless. Might as well keep it out in the open.

Because the NCAA needs to try to make some semblance of an attempt to keep their non-profit status in their valiant attempt to support their charter of supporting and supporting "amateur" sports?  The organization is a cartel and a scam.  Blow them up.

[The Hippie Satan of Hyperbole]

Member schools paying athletes would have no impact on its not-for-profit status. It wouldn't have any impact on its members' not-for-profit status either.

I didn't say member schools, Chumley. I said the NCAA. Their reason for being went away.

He thought NIL stood for “Nads Israel Lecture”. Honest mistake. Not everyone is well read!

Nope, where is Israel even mentioned in my post? My point is...its now evident that regardless of whatever I say, you will default immediately to a contrarian position. In fact, this is not unique to yourself. Battle lines appear to have been drawn in the sand, that when crossed by a meat summit brother, it triggers a Pavlov dog counter reaction by the mope squad members en masse, aina?

Dude, why don't you just STFU, stop being a victim, and actually engage in intelligent discussion instead of your usual nonsense. There was zero reason for you to derail this topic.

[4everwarriors]

Why in the hell would I listen to a pawn like you, hey?

[The Hippie Satan of Hyperbole]

Ah that's right - you're unable to engage in such discussion.

You created a persona here 12 years ago that stopped being funny or interesting 11 and a half years ago, so now you just do the bitter Boomer thing instead.

Carry on. I will continue to take you as seriously as I usually do.

For da record, I've been postin' on Scoop fore 17+ yeers, hey?

I did. Member schools don't pay athletes. Co-ops do. If they do, the vaunted NCAA should enforce their non-profit vision of supporting amateurism and ban their ass. Like they did with Bill Self. Oh wait

Actually, MU82 has been saying the same thing to people who post about the “ruination of college athletics” for quite awhile.  This isn’t the first discussion of NIL, it isn’t the first time someone said “ruination of college athletics”, it isn’t the first time he answered the way he did.

You’re just a victim, a mope, a snowflake
