The only buffer might be the admissions policies of the various institutions.

Some of the stories … You guys wouldn’t even believe …
Unfortunately....That I believe. SMH. Have to admit, though, my curiosity is very much piqued!

Coming from you and about Curbelo, i would tend toward believing. Respect you for not telling a lot you probably could, about a lot. Keeps you an insider.

Something tells me Vida Blue would be proud
I heard he would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.
Good summary. I don't get the doom-sayers, largely because I don't get the logic: Judge rules that a monopoly trying to lock athletes into a school is anti-competitive, ergo the NCAA must not be able to do anything and the sport is doomed.
Maybe I have a wild imagination, but I can imagine a world where the NCAA doesn't unreasonably restrict people from making their share of money while still having a sport. And yes, it will mean they'll have to adapt to the modern world. Athletes will share in the revenue, have a say in how they're compensated, etc.. It even seems to me that this model will prepare people for how the real world works (kinda how it should be).
Nicely done Dr. Evil.
Chestnuts are lazy. When’s the last time you’ve actually seen one roasted on an open fire?
You're describing a system of self-rule, where no one is responsible for setting rules by which all agree to abide by. By your definition, the NCAA cannot set any rules (we're quickly getting there IMHO), so therefore there will be no rules, which I think anyone with half a brain knows doesn't work, and cannot work. Most seem to forget that the NCAA is a member run organization where the schools decided and agreed upon a set of rules that all of its' member institutions would follow in the spirit of fair play, and later on, safety for the athletes. Left out of the equation were the athletes, who despite all assertions to the contrary, did receive something of value - a debt-free college education. Once the $ pot got large enough, athletes and their agents decided they deserved a bigger piece of the pie. One can argue for or against that construct, but the end result is quickly becoming anarchy, which IMHO, means the downfall of college football and basketball, and the likely end of all college athletics without the money sports to sustain their programs. The SEC and B1G are not going to join hands, sing Kumbaya, and then have a basketball season or football season.

Perhaps not the biggest story ever, but one reply to the Trilly tweet says Andre was caught riding his scooter on the runway at Willard Airport following an away game. Another describes him as the four most interesting players in college basketball.
All I know is that I still miss freshman Belo. When he was on he was completely magic.
I guess he has multiple personalities then…
Largely agree. The NCAA killed the Golden Goose by setting up said rules, but unfairly and capriciously enforcing them over several decades. If you choose not to enforce the rules in a judicious manner, chaos will ensue, which it has. The underlying issue, of course, being greed by the member institution leaders as well as the NCAA administrators. They are now reaping what they sowed, to the detriment of the fans that foot the bill, and ultimately student athletes.
