Guess the podcast could have gone in something like this, but figured I'd start something like this. CBS and CBS Network posted the TV schedule with start times. Women vs. SJU get TV time along with all the men's coverage. Here's the link - www.cbspressexpress.com/cbs-sports/releases/view?id=36885 |

Thanks for starting this belfield, I forgot to. Hope you don't mind, I changed the title.
Please put any links, articles, etc for this week in to this thread. Unless something hugely groundbreaking is written that warrants its own thread, which would be pretty apparent if that were to happen.

The NCAA would never allow all-out transfers because: A. lawsuits would be filed by the majority of schools; B. The NCAA would cease to exist as there would be no rules for recruiting and violators would go unpunished as the NCAA can't monitor all forms of communication. C. The NCAA needs to tighten recruiting rules and not allow anyone to enter the NBA draft without at least an associates degree and must play at least 3 years or go to NBA development league until after their would be third year.

How exactly is this the purview of the NCAA? It's pretty much entirely up to the NBA when they will consider players draft eligible, no? |

So coach, what about the student who receives an academic scholarship to college and after his or her freshman year he or she decides to leave school and start his or her own business. Should that student have to stay for an associates degree?

...C. The NCAA needs to tighten recruiting rules and not allow anyone to enter the NBA draft without at least an associates degree and must play at least 3 years or go to NBA development league until after their would be third year. I'm sorry, but that's a flat out stupid statement. As someone else asked, how exactly does the NCAA prevent that? What power do they have to stop someone from going to the NBA? If you want to see a mega lawsuit, try instituting that rule. Think man, think. |

The closest we've ever seen to any of this is the NCAA inplementing APR score minimums. But let's not kid ourselves, the NCAA can barely regulate the NCAA, let alone the NBA.

All of this regulation BS is why I'm so loving what that Clowney kid is doing at South Carolina. And its the right thing; playing another down in college is far more stupid than smart for a guy in his position.

If you want to see a mega lawsuit, try instituting that rule. Think man, think. The NBA sets the rules regarding draft entry and I don't believe the NCAA can do anything about it. Personally, I think the NBA should go with the baseball formula which is basically, you can get drafted out of high school, then not again until after your junior year. The only exception is JUCO's who can get drafted, I believe, at any time. The one bylaw I would add is that if a kid gets drafted, say in the second round and doesn't make the team, he can then go to college the following year, maybe minus one year of eligibility. |

Came across this A10 Media article by UMass beat writer Matt Vautour. I'm posting it here because of a ridiculous comment about La Salle. www.gazettenet.com/home/8828112-95/analysis-umass-mens-basketball-picked-4th-in-atlantic-10-conferenceI guess this guy was hibernating during La Salle's Sweet 16 run last year. The Southwest Philly Floater got more tweets than Chaz Williams did all season. La Salle's four guard attack is every bit as entertaining as watching UMass. Apparently a lot of other people think so too. La Salle has more national TV games than every other A10 school except VCU and will be the first A10 school to ever be featured on ESPN's College Gameday broadcast. |

What a doucher that guy is - the media attention in the 4th largest media market La Salle got last spring was unbelievable and drastically more than UMass could ever hope to get.
This guy acts like Calipari is still coaching a tainted Final 4 team up there.
And again - the Chaz Williams obsession I just don't get it. If he was so good and dynamic, why can't they make the NCAA tourney or be considered a legit threat to the A10 crown?

In fairness, you'd hibernate if you lived in Amherst, too.

"Hey team, we're going to cancel practice today because I have a local entrepreneur coming in to speak to you. Football is important, but your education always comes first. Danny, I know when we're having our weekly, non-sports mentorship sit down, you've expressed interest in tech startups. Why don't you grab a seat in the front!"

Its takes such an obsequious soul to argue the NCAA needs more power over athletes for the good of the athletes.

60% of all NBA athletes declare bankruptcy after 5 years of retirement, with the NFL posting a strong 75%. Educated or not, if you're in a culture where Bentley's are the norm, you're going to spend money. This has less to do with the NCAA than it does piss poor financial management and common sense.
