call me crazy, but isn't the entire concept a direct, in the face violation of everything the NCAA has penalized schools for in the past, and currently is against the rules? Schools paying for family member travel expenses to a game? It's not against the rules anymore? A waiver? Looks like Emmert is following Obama's playbook. When the rules don't fit, issue and executive memorandum order to change the rules.
What a joke the NCAA has become. For the record, I'm all for it, compensation for family travel - there is more than enough money to cover it.
But just level the damn playing field already and create a true division 1A/FBS playoff format such that every program in the country has the same route to a championship.
