NCAA

Unread post by eli#10 »

Just read an article on espn.com about Quade Green (from Philadelphia) of the University of Washington who has just been declared academically ineligible. The article goes on to say that last winter he transferred from Kentucky and received a waiver from the never accountable NCAA to be able to play IMMEDIATELY. The waiver certainly could not be due to a stellar academic record but WTF could be the reason for a waiver under these circumstances.

The NCAA is a huge bureaucratic organization that is not accountable to anybody or anything. How can the member schools allow this to continue?

Because, overall, it pays better than 'stopping' it?

On a different did you see Daniel Jones at the game last night? Wish I knew he was there and I might have bugged him.

Yes. He was sitting over behind the Davidson Bench. There was quite a bit of buzzz going around about Jones being there.

The kids were fine. Some adult old man went over and was bugging him and then security rightfully came over. Super excessively weird. Hopefully it wasn’t one of u. And I’m a giants fan too.

The guy slapped him five like 10x in the last 3 minutes of a close game that his brother is playing in. Have some pride. The guys like 20 years younger than you there to watch his brother. He was great taking selfies with kids.

People need to not get all ridiculous around famous people.

Some people just dont give a rat's ass about people's boundaries. Dont get too fan girly, they're just a person.

And it's just Daniel Jones people! Hasn't done squat yet.

you started a thread and immediately derailed it, good stuff
NCAA transfer regulations and the arbitrary adherence to them is bs
Who cares about Daniel Jones, we need Luke Murray back so Bill can stop by.

I walked out with him, and actually apologized to him for the fans behavior. It was utterly ridiculous.

At the risk of sounding bougee, I have a summer home in an area where a lot of celebs vacation. It is ridiculous to see what grown adults do when they recognize them in restaurants or on the street. Some celebs will patiently accept the distraction, but others get hostile. Don’t ever approach Spike Lee, because he will not Do The Right Thing!

Plus he derailed his own NCAA thread to bring up the Daniel Jones story that has already been discussed in the Davidson Game thread.
This NCAA thread Belongs in All Other College Sports - maybe?

i was disgusted by the fans harassing the guy. I am thankful that someone sitting in 204 started to kick people out that were coming to bother him over the railing.
