Ncaa done shuts down investigation

If you know my posts, you know I'm constantly jackassing, snarking, and making fun of everything, and everybody, including myself. Of all our crazy Vols fans, I'm in a league of my own, cause many of the others do have a level of sanity, I never had any.
I here for all of that! You’re good in my book! I also do the same. I took no offense by your post :)
 
I disagree. If a player has no malicious intent out still puts another player in danger due to a stupid play, accidental or not, that player deserves to be ejected. Form tackle safely or sit out.
Sometimes they uphold on the technicalities, sometimes players hit coming down or hit in a stumble by sheer accident. Tebow and several players even say when the collision was by mere accident and light there should be no player thrown out. Sometimes collisions happen where neither player has control nor intent. Some calls have already be appealed and players next game suspension has been lifted. They should be able to look and determine no loss of time on certain inadvertent hits. GBO

This has been suggested before but.....they need to institute a flagrant 1 and 2 style system like the NBA. Player safety needs to be paramount but the ejection on the type of play you mention is excessive. So call that targeting 1 with a penalty, but no ejection in that situation. If the foul is excessive or intentional call targeting 2 that follows current ejection rules.
 
It had everything to do with nil rules, NCCA has no jurisdiction over it at the present time.
Our case was over preferential benefits during recruitment. NCAA was after UT for private plane rides for potential recruits and influencing a recruit because of NIL. It was not about the money that NICO received.
 
Sec and Big 10 about to form its own governing body. NCAA is dead man walking.

There are something like 1,118 colleges and universities who participate in NCAA tournaments and follow NCAA-maintained rule books.

That institution isn't dying even if the entirety of Division I-A (FBS, in football terms) cuts bait. It will continue on in a less lucrative way, still the #1 most significant college sports entity in the nation.

Don't get me wrong. I have zero love for the NCAA. But I don't have to like it to understand its vast reach and hold.

Go Vols!

College basketball and football are their own entity and not really amateur sports anymore. When I talk about the NCAA I am only talking these two sports. But I could still see a scenario where these two conferences completely bail out if the NCAA and the rest remain under it.
 
Never in doubt. Now throw out the NCAA and the targeting rule with them.

:)
Yes and No, The targeting rule needs to be more defined and consistent across the board. I think they should have a Intentional/non-intentional targeting. Intentional gets you kicked out of game + 15 yards. Non intentional is just a 15 yard penalty.

Agree, it may just be lingering "BVS" but,I cannot help but think that... if the NCAA were to win the actual verdict in court that we would have a bullseye on our back forever.
Freedom is never cheap. You are correct, but sometimes it is worth the fight.

The injunction protects NIL money, NIL contacts and contracts, and individual boosters endorsements. It also prohibits retroactive enforcement against the athletes or the schools, even if the NCAA wins the case. That is VERY unlikely.

The fact that two state AGs are arguing the case speaks volumes for the likely outcome.

That was the outcome, not the reason we went to court.
