    Funny thing, majority of conferences were for it. Guess SEC gets what they want. No more camps in cali for Petersen. Just dandy

    If the majority of conferences are for it, then fuck off SEC. You lose.

    Grow some damn balls.

    This actually isn't true. The majority of the conferences, including the Pac12, voted for no more camps. Having 1/3 or the P12 in Cali probably had something to do with it.

    This isn't a crazy big deal, it just cuts off exposure to fringe kids @UndertheRadar.

    Welcome to Obama's America

    Honda will ruin any thread you mention Obama in.

    That being said, I hate Harbaugh, but you gotta appreciate a coach that makes the establishment change the rules. If Petersen actually won, you could say he helped change the rule.

    I really wanted to set up a camp in Colfax or Moscow (out of respect for our great leader)

    Harbaugh didn't cheat at all. What he did (and many other schools do as well) was within the rules. You can't be serious that he took the satellite camp thing to a new level in an effort to change the rules. Beyond FS.

    The right solution would be to limit schools as to the number of satellite camps a team can have in a given year, whether they are purely evaluation camps, part of spring ball or part of preseason fall ball. A total of 2 of these camps seems to me to be reasonable.

    A great example of unintended consequences has to do with ASU. For more than 50 years, ASU has held a week of preseason practices at Camp Tontozona, a location much cooler than Tempe at an elevation of nearly 5,000'. It had nothing to do with recruiting, as the location is in the metropolis of Payson, AZ, population of 15,000 people.

    Pretty clear this NCAA decision had nothing to do with common sense and everything to do with protecting ESPN and the SEC.

    What does this mean for those not versed in teen boi stalking?

    Mostly good for the Cali schools, bad for the rest of conference and schools like Michigan and ND that host satellite camps in LA every year as a means to get in front of recruits.

For more than 50 years, ASU has held a week of preseason practices at Camp a, a location much cooler than Tempe at an elevation of nearly 5,000'.

    No I'm not saying he cheated, nor am I saying he was trying to change the rules. He pushed the boundaries and got the attention of the establishment, which I appreciate.

    Sounds like a closer to me. Wish Peterman had stones like Harbaugh instead of shriveled dates.

    Sucks every cock conference wins again. This is pretty damn big for schools like WSU, OSU, Colorado, and to an extent, the UW. The LA area and Bay Area are protected for SC and UCLA.
    Brb, heard NCAA is passing through town, going to buy butthole butter and a mouth gag.
