the NCAA announced that its Division I Amateurism Cabinet had proposed new legislation designed to close a loophole that Auburn slipped through en route to the BCS title.

The new proposal attempts to cover that situation going forward. It applies to family members and other third parties that act like an agent and try to get paid.

I hope there is no retro-active punishment then.

Does it cover solicitation or must you receive a benefit???

If a player or someone close to him ask for something from UGa, can he still get a scholly to UF? Would UF be in trouble...

They better be damn tight on the language here.

What would stop me from going up to Alabama and asking for money on behalf of every recruit they sign, then?

Loophole my muthaf'ing arse.

There wasn't any loophole. If there was a loophole, then why did USC get f'cked over Reggie Bush's parents getting a rent-free house.

If this passes, it could mean a kid's Granny could be considered an agent
