A New Low For The NCAA


Aug 18, 2013, 3:19 PM

http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/ncaaf-dr-saturday/ncaa-searches-low-denying-marine-eligibility-173055162.html

"Steven Rhodes is a 24-year-old Marine sergeant. He finished his five-year commitment to the armed forces this summer and called up Middle Tennessee State’s football coaches and asked if they had a spot for him as a walk-on. They happily accepted the 6’ 3”, 240-pound veteran and have been using him as a tight end and defensive lineman during practice.

Great story, right?

Well, it would be, except Rhodes isn’t eligible to play this season because he took part in an intramural league while in the service. He received no money to play in some extremely disorganized games."



This better be fixed. The NCAA needs some major reforms. I guess D-Rod never played in one of these "leagues"?

Idiotic bureaucracy

Nothing new here, but yes, another example of applying rules that punish the inherently innocent all while whistling past the graveyard of superstars and their scandals.

Good rule. They don't want any team to have an advantage over the others. Keep everything fair and square.

That is why they lowered the boom on the 'Heels! Or have they???
