Guest Jules Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I think the players can keep their scholarships even if they don't play on the team. I heard something like this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The High Heat Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I believe all the players are free to transfer to other schools if they choose to do so. This is correct. I'd expect a few departures before the week is out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bleedorange Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I'm sure this writer is a really nice guy but has never had to repeatedly walk by a statue of someone who knew his children were being raped and did nothing about it. With all due respect orange what do you think would be a proper punishment for an institution that covered up child molestation and rape all the way up the ranks to president? He wasn't addressing the removal of the statue, but I'm not sure anyone really disagrees with that move. The point is that the NCAA should not even be involved with applying punishment in this case. It's not an issue concerning athletics. But it does give the NCAA the opportunity to make a splashy move. So, now with this unprecedented action in place, how will the NCAA act towards other morally repugnant actions involving people tied to an athletics program? Is the NCAA judge and jury for everything now, much like a commissioner? Can they invoke any bylaw they want by finessing the language to make way for whatever sanctions it deems necessary?

sonicshoulder Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 If you don't see this as "an issue concerning athletics" you would make one hell of a defense attorney. An athletics coach was having sex with children and two other athletics coaches were allowing it in the team's facilities. Is it x's and o's no....is it athletic related absolutley. This is not the first time the NCAA has acted regarding off the feild issues. I'm not in the NCAA's corner but they have been judge and jury for a long time, this is nothing new.
