Message: [QUOTE="CL82, post: 3338354, member: 44"] The premise in your post was a court case on the issue with a swift dismissal based merely on the existence of NCAA rules: My response pointed out that application of those rules would be a part any such case particularly when the plaintiff can make a case showing an apparently arbitrary and capricious application of those rules. Regarding your new argument that since no one has challenged NCAA rules yet, there must not be a basis to do it, I point out that a Memphis athlete did just that this year. His indefinite suspension became 11 games (IIRC). Further, UNC threat of litigation caused the NCAA to back off significant penalties as did Penn State's. I'm not commenting on whether I think anyone would prevail. I'm just noting that both your original and secondary presumptions in your posts were inaccurate. [/QUOTE]
