All the kid wanted to do was play football and have a roof over his head.

The scholarship wouldn't do anything now. The NCAA has unfortunately already spoken and made a decision

declare him ineligible AND Baylor hasn't requested a waiver for him at all. I don't know what to believe, but that is floating around out in the interspace.

already said in the article I saw that they had nothing to do with this. Baylor didn't do anything apparently to try to keep the kid eligible.

This is heartbreaking and completely stupid. Does the NCAA ever use common sense

It's Baylor's move, but an outpouring of ridicule and TNET

harassment toward the NCAA would make a major statement. Everybody tends to sit back as individuals and get rolled over by the "powers that be", not just in sports, but in general. The only change will come from the perpetual harassment of these bastiches.

Their selective enforcement of their antiquated rules is at best a complete farce. Cheating can run rampant and blatant at UNC, but nothing is done. Certain SEC schools can perpetually buy recruits but nothing is done. The NCAA has outlived it's usefulness and now the schools involved need to say enough we're done. There has to be a governing body, but it needs to be a new one without a financially vested interest in certain cases.

A football scholarship includes room and board. If I understand correctly, he must have been a walk on with an academic scholarship. All Baylor had to do was give him a football scholarship and the issue would be solved. Allowing Baylor to provide housing without counting against the 85 ship limit is a BAD idea as the cheating SEC would take advantage
