Rule changes
Probably still not enough for the “you’re soft if you want to remember your own name in your 50’s” crowd, but still a positive change.

This new rule change removes “the call stands” option for officials, which means a targeting penalty must be “confirmed” in order to eject a player from the game.

I agree. It'll be interesting to see it in action... I'm not sure I agree with the idea that it becomes penalty free if I can't satisfy every aspect of it... but I definitely agree that ejection shouldn't just be willy nilly, "well, we thought we saw it and evidence doesn't prove otherwise", you're out.

Football is soft with targeting rules.

I use the word yummy every time I eat icecream. And chocolate. And peanutbutter. And pasta. And cube steak. And pot roast.
Man. I sure say yummy a lot.

They can change the verbiage all they want in the rule, but until we see how it is actually applied, then I'll wait before giving them a pat on the back. I'm still against ejecting players for a non-egregious first time targeting offense in a game. They could make it very simple by doing what basketball does and having a targeting 1 and targeting 2 penalty. But why should we expect the NCAA to do anything logical.

Donovan Wilson was just called for targeting and the call was confirmed.
This is regardless of the fact that Wilson graduated last month...
