Despite having a head coach involved in his second major infractions case in his last two jobs, Pearl is suspended a mere two games.

NCAA is one big court case from really being toothless. And do you want the alternative of no regulation? It’s just like the new free transfer rules, they are driven by activist legislators and judges. FYI OU_Country, 110% agree. State Athletic Associations are coming under the same activism. Hell there was just a suit filed to create a civilian board to review officials game decisions.

But then, “it is what it is”.

Hell there was just a suit filed to create a civilian board to review officials game decisions. It's silly. Public review of officials? Those who employ the officials are the only ones who should be part of said reviews. Parents, fans in the stands, former players...none of them deserve to be part of that conversation.

It is a serious problem in many sports and many levels as it is. This would not help.

And every state association and NCAA is always at the mercy of state legislatures Back to Top Showing Replies:   1 - 10  of 10 Posts Jump to Page:   1 View Other 'Ohio Basketball' Topics                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               WHO'S ONLINE There are 256 Active Visitors on BobcatAttack.com 256 Guests 0 Registered Users There are no other users looking at this page.
