Message: [QUOTE="BBallF, post: 3912706, member: 10435"] Nell Fortner wrote an open letter to the NCAA which I just read and think is excellent. Responding to the above post, whether it is legally enforceable or not is not the issue. The issue is stark disparity of treatment, from the facilities, to the media, even to the announcers. The law is very slow by its very nature but as Victor Hugo once said "Nothing is as powerful as an idea whose time has come". This will not be fixed in the halls of Congress, It will be fixed in the caverns of pubic opinion as long as the complaints and photos and videos reach a crescendo response. Just watch. The NCAA is not going to justify what they are doing on the basis of money. If they go that route, there will be a hue and a cry that may result in a backlash they will not be able to control.
