did he call out a single team? really stupid of bowlsby to do this when the big 12 has two schools currently being investigated
From the article:
He wants the federal government tied to NCAA "cheating"
quote:
“I am really not very far of being of the mind that some form of federal statute is not a good idea,” he said. “You could say it's against the law to influence where a student athlete would go to school, influence the outcome of a contest, to provide a benefit that is outside of the rules.”
Then his quote about the enforcement committee not meeting over a year
quote:
“[NCAA] enforcement is broken,” Bowlsby said. “The infractions committee hasn't had a hearing in almost a year, and I think it's not an understatement to say cheating pays presently.”
“They're [enforcement] in the battle with a BB gun in their hand,” he said. “They're fighting howitzers. We have to find a way to make progress on it. It undermines the confidence of the system.”
ETA: He's not calling out one specific conference or school. He's pulling the "they're all cheatin'" card. But he's certainly pissed that one of his is being investigated. And he probably just made it worse.
