NCAA looks to overhaul rulebook, toughen penalties
August 11, 2011 8:58 AM
NCAA leaders are ready to give college sports a complete overhaul.
They want to simplify the massive 439-page Division I rulebook, enforce stronger penalties for rule-breakers, increase academic standards and link academic performance to possible postseason bans. And if NCAA President Mark Emmert gets his way, all of this would be approved in the next 12 months.
It's a far cry from the stodgy, deliberative days of past NCAA administrations.
