Oregon WBB receives notice of allegations from NCAA

Oregon receives notice of allegations from NCAA

In the spirit of posting important news concerning some of our (possible) opponents...

 

[j66kicker]

Looks like they self-reported the “extra workout” violations in MBB & WBB. Academic misconduct in track & field looks a lot more serious.

 

[Plebe]

"Graves was charged with failure to properly promote an atmosphere of compliance. The charge comes from the strength and conditioning staff members participating in on-court drills and assisting in voluntary workouts outside the presence of the coaching staff."

Color me underwhelmed.

 

[Centerstream]

I hope that it doesn't become a distraction for the teams.

meanwhile HS football recruits, who just signed letters of intent, just starting driving new cars.... nothing for the NCAA to see there

 

[huskeynut]

Obviously not good, but seriously the NCAA is overbearing in some these things. The academic part is very serious as it should be. The basketball items seem minor at best.

This all goes the NCAA's credibility, which isn't worth much.

 

[Huskee11]

Agree with Plebe, sounds like small potatoes re women`s BB.

Oregon, my second favorite WCBB team. A distant second, but second nonetheless.

The NCAA's pattern and practice has been to come down hard on misdemeanors and ignore felonies.

Don't forget the new $1,000 tattoos.

Geno should be careful. If this happens at UConn the NCAA will likely strip the 1,000 wins and 11 titles.

And teams not named Duke or North Carolina.

There are a few more on the Untouchables list, but absolutely. NCAA stinks about as much as FIBA.

But don't forget that ALL of their rules are proposed by member schools and are approved by a vote of member schools. The regulations in the bylaws are what the member schools want.

Stamford - I am well aware of how the NCAA is set up and functions. Doesn't mean I have to agree with them and their credibility is pitiful.

Do the member schools also vote on selective enforcement and special treatment?

You don't think that happens in men's college basketball?

I was unaware of FIBA. Thanks for informing me.

Yeah, my bad, FIFA not FIBA

Well, if we think back to the 1972 Olympics, FIBA didn’t exactly cover itself with integrity either.

Well they have to punish someone to maintain the illusion that they are a rule enforcement agency. Bullies usually only pick on someone who can not or will not fight back. Unlike what Theodore Roosevelt's suggested they prefer to talk laud and carry a feather duster.

I heard of FIBA. My post was to let you know that I did not know that FIBA was a bad organization. Now, I have not heard of FIFA. What does that stand for?

Unless you are from UNC, then there is no punishment.
