Why take your glove off and slap the ncaa in the face? Schools are supposed to take allegations extremely serious and play it safe. Ignoring it was just weird.



Jay Jacobs said after the meeting Thursday the NCAA gave them no indication or reason for sitting Cam.

*That is not to say nothing illegal did happen.

From a PURELY "sanctions" point of view, I doubt that anything draconian will happen to AU IF it is only found that Cam was ineligible (AU did not pay, etc)

Yes, I get the "played a known ineligible" argument, but given the circustance, I just do not believe there is great risk. There is a reasonable argument that AU can make that they really believed Cam would be cleared to play and there was too much at risk for the season and Cam personally to simply 'sit' him.


Now, from a "smell test" point of view and a "moral" perspective, (I PERSONALLY believe that Cam will be ruled ineligible) AU looks more skeevy for NOT sitting him.
