Message: [QUOTE="ClamOtto, post: 750892, member: 368"] It seems like the crux of the NCAA's problem is hypocrisy. Claiming to be about amateurism while raking in and paying out huge sums of money, penalizing "student-athletes" who make a dime off their own fame while coaches and schools are making millions, cracking down on some schools while looking the other way at higher profile programs' indiscretions, claiming to protect student-athletes from the handlers and hangers-on who leech off them while enacting a huge loophole to let high school and AAU coaches do it in the open, etc. etc. It feels to me, though, like public opinion has shifted to such an extent that the NCAA is the last to realize they they are on the wrong side of history. I'm hopeful there will be big changes in the not-too-distant future. [/QUOTE]
