Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 1799461, member: 716"] Couldn't agree more, but this is what leads to a powerful NCAA with all sorts of complicated rules. Everyone's favorite curmudgeon Phil Mushnick had a line I appreciated earlier today - something along the lines of 'the NCAA rulebook would be a pamphlet if it weren't for all these cheating coaches and administrations.' This is what tempers my NCAA criticism. We obviously need rules to this game, because every single high-level coach in the country (and virtually every administrator who's his 'boss' yet makes one-fifth of the coach's salary) will do anything it takes to win games. College athletics is ugly. Too bad it's so fun to watch. [/QUOTE]
