Title: name-image-likeness
Post by: rocket surgeon on January 12, 2024, 04:29:30 AM
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 (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?

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.  :D

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.

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.

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.

Love or hate the NCAA, I don't care, but you need to do some independent research into exactly what the NCAA is. I'd agree that the NCAA is a form of cartel and I don't think any of the members would deny it just like none of the OPEC members would deny it is a cartel.

I don't know how it can be labeled as a "scam". Certainly the members who created and control it know what is going on. The student-athletes know what the rules are upfront. The NCAA is no more a scam than the IRS is a scam.

Yeah, blowing up the NCAA isn't really the solution. It's limiting the scope of their mission. But remember their mission only expanded because its members gave them that authority in the first place.

with all due respect whitetrash-the supreme court doesn't go after the "alleged" violators.  i can imagine the ncaa looks for issues, then charges them and issues the penalty.  the supreme court takes cases and rules on them in accordance with our consitution...well most of them do anyway

Agreed. I'd guess that 90%+ of what the NCAA does is good stuff. I'd say it has done way more to advance women's sports than any other organization (redirecting men's sports revenue to women's). Maybe I'm wrong, so please correct me. Blowing it up seems very short sighted.

I think the "NCAA sucks" stuff comes from ESPN and sports talk radio meatheads. 10 years ago I was anti-NCAA because I listened to those outlets. Then I educated myself and changed my tune. But I agree the schools can do better running the NCAA.

The point I was making is that the Supreme Court was created to be the final word in litigation and the NCAA was ,among many tasks, formed to regulate college sport under the rules the schools gave it. The NCAA has never done anything that the schools did not want it to do, including being judge, jury and executioner.

Post by: The Hippie Satan of Hyperbole on January 13, 2024, 12:46:56 PM
The NCAA is over burdened with compliance and eligibility regulations, and has become more bureaucratic as a result. And that means it makes a lot of decisions that are dictated by the black and white of the rules versus the grays of common sense.

But the organization does a really excellent job at conducting championships. And there has to be some sort of baseline for eligibility and compliance right? Some organization is going to need to do that work.

Letting Blacks compete. Letting women compete. Title IX. Freshman eligibility. Non-seniors being eligible to be drafted by pro sports leagues. Giving athletes small stipends. The transfer portal. NIL.

Crusty, change-averse mopes have spent decades claiming those and other affronts would be the ruination of college athletics.
