Bad news for Willie Reed and really bad news for Richard Anderson

Who is AG? and Rick really didnt pursue Harrellson that hard. We wanted Harrellson but it wasnt Ricks best effort.

Sorry, I meant AT.

I meant to say AT. Yes, RM did pursue Josh extremely hard.

This is more evidence of the bigger problem with college basketball. These kids will now be punished because of greedy old men looking to exploit them. Bad news for many student athletes. Hope everything works out for Reed and he does indeed end up a Bill some day.

I would disagee.....the NCAA in wrting, on its site, and via phone, makes itself available ....they have an aggressive outreach - so parents and adult guardians know what is required for student athletes.....whether the adults involved made a wrong decision or simply did not avail themselves to this info. may have happened....people make mistakes....but to say the NCAA "bushwacked" them...or didn't have the athlete in mind is more than a stretch...its simply incorrect.....the NCAA always had issues whether the methods used in both schools provided the core requirements set by the NCAA.....

Here is the link to the NCAA press release noting the same......

Note the following.....

"...Students currently enrolled in Milestone Christian Academy and Nashville Christian Advancement Academy must have their individual academic records reviewed to be considered in the initial eligibility process. A determination will be made regarding their NCAA initial eligibility status based on this review of their individual academic record...."

I don't think Saluki was calling the NCAA the greedy old men. He was referring to Flourney and other "coaches" of programs like Milestone that have taken advantage of the highschool kids.

I would call the NCAA greedy. There isn't a chance in the world they care more about the kids than they do making money
