    I get the legality of it. What I don't understand is, doesn't NCAA realize they are impeding on a quasi-partner? They should be working with high schools to help nuture the so called feeder system, not take the fans out of their stadiums just because they can.

    This game will be a Rugby match. Can't imagine how physical it is going to get. It will be interesting to see who the refs are.
