JSelingo is Editor of The Chronicle of Higher Education and Tweeted out Emmert's comments at a taping of Graham Spanier show on the Big Ten Network. Guess this will be airing later today.
More pertinent tweets quoting/paraphrasing Emmert:
I went to the Big Ten site and Expert Opinion airs at Noon ET on Monday. So if you want to see Emmert's full interview, you'll have to wait until then to verify if these Tweets are accurate.

Emmert: We help students succeed in a career. But when one wants to be a pro athlete we keep them away from agents. Doesn't make sense.

His father has already admitted to shopping his son. How much proof does the jackass need?
The NCAA is losing all credibility as a governing body. They're allowing this season to go forward even though it's going to be invalidated.

Thought they were determining whether he is eligible or not? Has Cam or AU been accused of wrongdoing? Spin away!!

And, it's a DAMNED shame that they refuse to step forward and do something in light of what Cecil already admitted to doing with Cam.

Nope. But Cecil has.
You know, the boy's daddy who made the decision that his son would be attending a certain school on the Plains.
But keep regurgitating Pat Dye's talking points. It's entertaining.

So getting the facts right interprets to meaning building a case...LOL at Teague you are a gullible one indeed.
