Message: [QUOTE="nomar, post: 2406998, member: 651"] Who said it was a conspiracy? And I think most people in this thread are questioning the decision in the Beverly case, rather than the Wilson case, which I think is distinguishable. You're a lawyer. You understand the concept of reliance. Beverly was induced (duped) by the comments made by the AD to stay at the university and enroll in the May class. Morally and equitably, the right thing to do was grant the waiver. But the NCAA doesn't care about morality or equities. It's unclear what they care about. They always do the wrong thing, whether it's creating a bad rule or applying a rule to the detriment of the "student-athletes" the NCAA is supposed to protect. I also don't know why people (not directed at you) are saying "what did you expect" in a thread where people are complaining about the NCAA's ridiculous rules? We don't have the right to complain on a MBB message board about the NCAA, even if we're not or should not have been "surprised" by their actions? A lot of people expected UNC to skate; does that preclude them from criticizing the NCAA? [/QUOTE]
