Agree in the main.

What was new from this article [for me, at least] was Florida's involvement in the process, and how that might have tripped up the proceedings for Bleich.  Which is why I agree with Phat above -- there was probably a better case to be made then throwing a party under the bus who can influence the outcome.

I qualify the above by pointing out that the article was only told from the family perspective, so maybe there's more to it.  But I think that building a different case might have had a different outcome -- as clearly evidenced by the 90% success rate for waivers being granted this year].

And at the end of the day, the lopsided rate of approvals vs. this outcome -- and the way the NCAA bends over backwards for high profile skilled position players vs. others -- points out the inherent hypocrisy at work, and what a paper exercise the proceedings are.  Wouldn't expect anything more from this sham of an enforcement body.
