I LOVE that both UCONN teams completely ignored this fool after they won their National Championships. Emmert is absolute slime and I will never forgive him for using UCONN as a ridiculous APR example while doing nothing about other academic scandals, like UNC. Somebody send Milan Lucic to his house for a cup check.

"Absolute slime" may be an understatement.

I got to witness Dr. Emmert firsthand at a few NCAA conventions, and he is as arrogant as many people make him to be. My understanding is that the morale at NCAA office in Indianapolis has nosedived since he became president.

In his (only) defense, he has to defend NCAA rules. Any of the policies that he defends, such as not playing players, limits of how much and what kind of food student-athletes can eat, etc., can be overturned by member institutions, no matter his stance.

The NCAA is at a crossroads right now. It needs competent and unselfish leadership to get through this. I don't think is up to the task.

As with anyone whose arrogance eventually transcends his intelligence, Emmert’s belief in his own empty rhetoric seems to know no bounds
Yowser, that was pretty harsh, accurate, but harsh.
