This story and penalizing a Baylor kid because he was homeless and needed somewhere to stay basically sums up the NCAA.


Not even close to the same. If I read this correctly schools are made aware that penalties could incur if a kid signs a FAA, contact not normally allowed without the FAA incurs, then the kid enrolls and signs somewhere else. I think it is stupid but it wasn't like LSU wasn't aware of the risk. Seems to me schools should just continue to follow the same contact rules even though the kid signed an FAA. Then they don't have to worry about it.

I didn't say they were the same exact scenario. I really don't know the full story regarding the Baylor situation anyway other than some brief reading yesterday. The bottom line is that the NCAA continues to be a joke when it comes to discipline. Every situation is treated differently and some situations that arise aren't even addressed by them. They just go away. They pick and choose. It's a broken system. Period.

I hear that the kid gave them all indications he was solidly on board. Something happened to that kid to have him change his mind. You could say he "saw the light" and signed with Saban. That would be on par, right?
