Message: [QUOTE="ecasadoSBU, post: 4986663, member: 3976"] Why do folks always blame the NCAA for everything? NCAA is like biggest scapegoat... It takes all the hits for the greed of individual colleges and conferences. Don't they realize that the NCAA is at the mercy of our judicial and legislative branches of government? The NCAA is powerless to do anything if the courts consistently rule against it. People gotta stop blaming the NCAA. The NCAA has been trying to avoid this whole mess for decades. The writing was on the wall the moment the Supreme Court ruled against the NCAA controlling TV contracts back in 1984. Ever since then its been a futile attempt to retain the student-athlete model and any semblance of competitive balance between athletic programs [/QUOTE]
