What would it take for the NCAA to regain control?


Jun 19, 2012, 1:57 PM

The NCAA gave away control of college football with the introduction of the bowl games. Then lost even more of a foothold with the creation of the BCS championship game. What would it take now to regain control?

Right now the NCAA is in a critical situation. The creation of a playoff and the money involved must be controlled by the NCAA or all hope is lost. When conferences become too powerful the NCAA can no longer control them. That means the playing field must be evened across the board so that no one conference has too much control.

in fact under this new agreement the NCAA has even less control and the control has moved to the power 4 conferences.

I think your right except for the fact the conferences can't agree on what they want. That gives the NCAA some leverage to step in and take advantage.

back to the NCAA....that's what this is all about...it's $...the NCAA makes millions from the basketball tournament but nothing from the BCS and the schools/conferences aren't going to give it back either.

produce more revenue than the current system then they can regain control.

I sure hope they can - would like to see them run the D1 football playoffs/championship like they do D1 basketball - wish they could turn the bowl games into playoff sites and then have a true national championship game between the two last teams standing (just like in basketball).

I guess that's too simple and logical to ever work, though.

too late.. ESPNSEC has got it all by the throat and until something changes and the NCAA gets some GUTS to punish rogue schools like Bama and So Car we have what we will have...

There's no room for Socialism in college football !


Jun 19, 2012, 4:01 PM

The SEC has the upperhand for now, but things will change eventually as the market gets tired of SEC schemes to screw over their own athletes by pulling their scholarships, cheating at SEC member schools and the ramblings of SEC, SEC over and over again by EsecSPN, the propaganda wing of Mike Slive's regime as dictator.

I disagree.

Populist university presidents will push for revenue-sharing like the NFL or college football will become Major League Baseball and only a few teams will be competing for championships.

before letting that happen. You would see, for example, the SEC and Big 12 aligning to play each other in non-conference games. The Big 10 and Pac 10 would do the same.

The presidents, who actually control the NCAA, need to take their responsibility seriously and stop their benign neglect governance or

Jun 19, 2012, 5:23 PM

The premise of the question is false. The schools are the NCAA so in effect the original question is "when will schools regain control of themselves?"
Well, news flash, if the umbrella organization starts to be counter-productive to the big schools, they'll leave. Its that simple.
This whole situation is getting very close to what it was in the 70's when the courts said schools could negotiate their own TV contracts and you had the formation of the College Football Association. Up until then the NCAA had "regained control" like nobody's business and I dont think anyone is going to allow that to happen again.

The NCAA has never had true control. Its control is derived from the instititions. No institution is bound in any way to the NCAA. If a large enough group want to split they have every right to. Like someone above said, the NCAA will only hold power as long as its the most profitable way to do business.

NCAA began to lose control by not being consistent in


Jun 19, 2012, 8:57 PM

the way it dealt with infractions. It took too long to investigate and then they handed out penalties and probations in an inconsistent manner. That is like a manager at work treating employees differently. It makes one happy but makes the majority angry. The only way to maintain control and moral is to be fair and consistent and the NCAA has been neither. Go Tigers!
