Yesterday the Division I Legislative Review and Interpretations Committee issued an official interpretation regarding which coaching clinics college coaches could attend: The committee determined that an athletics department staff member may not be employed (either on a salaried or a volunteer basis) in any capacity by a coaches clinic established, sponsored or conducted by an […]
Earlier today I looked at which power conference football teams have to sweat it out leading up to the NCAA’s release of the 2012–13 Academic Progress Rate (APR) numbers next week. Now it is basketball’s turns. The biggest difference between football and basketball is that basketball’s smaller scholarship limit (13 vs. 85) means smaller APR […]
When the NCAA’s annual Academic Progress Rate numbers are released next week, it will be something of a watershed moment. The APR benchmark for postseason eligibility will rise from 900 to 930 (with one more year of an exception). That change is expected to catch out a significant number of teams, enough so that there […]
Dan Wolken of USA Today: The reason athletics directors are still in a guessing game, even after such a prolonged discussion about the stipend/cost of attendance issue, is that the definitions involved are highly variable and extremely delicate relative to the current wave of lawsuits being pursued against the NCAA and its members.

But the board also adopted a piece of football recruiting legislation which further expands what institutions can provide […]
Brandon Marcello of AL.com has a report on an elite camp that Auburn men’s basketball will host on August 24. That day had to be fit between two important deadlines. As Marcello notes, August 24 is the day that Bruce Pearl’s show-cause order expires and he may once again have contact with recruits. But by […]
Whenever Congress decides to take an interest in college athletics, the response ranges from “Oh no” to “Here we go again”. The recent history of interactions between Congress and college athletics is mostly composed of a series of grandstanding hearings that never produce a bill much less a law. So even I could not contain […]
