Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
WTF? Emmert drops hammer on scheduling patsies.

Deadspin is reporting:
The NCAA is finally setting actual standards for its members, declaring “countable opponents” must be real colleges and not pseudo-schools masquerading as real colleges in order to earn game checks for showing up and getting blown out.This, from the same guy who forfeited one of UW's proudest traditions to schedule EWU and Portland State. I fucking hate this man.
The new NCAA rules for countable opponents require teams to represent regionally-accredited colleges or, alternatively, be members of the NAIA or NCCAA. That knocks dozens of former and future NCAA Division I opponents off the list; we counted fourteen Division I men’s basketball games last season that featured schools specifically banned by the new NCAA rule, and another eight that starred colleges of questionable repute under the new rules...

I thought maybe that was from The Onion.

I have emailed them two or three times on how to even out the OOC scheduling process. It's not difficult and would take about five minutes of prep work.

Do any of you truthfully believe Emmert has ever cared about anything but himself? Someone should drop a hammer on his balls.

I'm pretty sure that's how Woody got promoted ...Fenwick said:Do any of you truthfully believe Emmert has ever cared about anything but himself? Someone should drop a hammer on his balls.

I wonder if "former" imperils Gil Dobie's record. I mean, how many battleship teams are included in his 58-0-1 record. Even the Ballard Meteors!

flagged for disparaging remarks against EWU, because the huskys have not dominated that series at all, surrendering 50 points in one game, and being schooled in fundamentals in the first matchup. Although credit the purple squad with finding ways to win.
