    Rod, you may want to step away from the keyboard for awhile. The next step,and we hate to do it, would be to revoke your posting privileges for a few days.

    I just realized that Kim thinks it is a privilege to post on dawgman. These people pay money to post, yet it is a privilege?

    Sounds like some sort of cult of personality

    “There’s no one talking about this being some incremental change,” Emmert said. “I think there’s an interest in some pretty fundamental change in the way decisions are made,. . ."

    Maybe Emmert's been reading this bored.

    Sounds like there's a fundamental split between the AD's and the Presidents. The idea of creating a separate structure for big-time football makes sense. Delany's idea of offering lifetime scholarships seems a stretch but maybe a ten year window to finish a degree might work. There's certainly enough money to make it happen. The NCAA has to reinvent itself, period. I don't see Emmert as the guy to do it.

    but that's just what Emmert's hearing... don't read into it.
