In recent years transparency has become one of the buzzwords in NCAA criticism.

Todd McNair, the coach who the NCAA enforcement staff painted as the crux of USC’s responsibility for the Reggie Bush violations, passed a major test when his lawsuit survived a motion to dismiss from the NCAA.

Just two days after becoming bowl eligible, Miami self-imposed a second consecutive postseason ban. Self-imposed postseason bans longer than a year are more or less unprecedented. But the way Miami did it might be unique in the history of NCAA enforcement. Rather than impose a two-year postseason ban straight away, or decide on a penalty […]
The normal Division I legislative process is on hold this year, although the Rule Working Group proposals are due to be voted on by the Division I Board of Directors in January.
