WTF? Emmert drops hammer on scheduling patsies.

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.

God you are a fucking retard for championing the "EW barely lost to UW!" bullshit. For a championship program that sure seems like a loser mentality.ApostleofGrief said: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.

That game was perfectly set up for Eastern to make it competitive, and wow they came back from 21 points down and scored essentially a garbage-time touchdown at the end. Whoop de fucking doo. -

As a longtime Husky fan I know a thing or two about moral victories. The scorebored doesn't accurately reflect the greatness of the team and so on and so forth. Therefore I support AoG's position on EWU and agree that moral victories > actual victories.

I was about 10 feet away from the field, in the exact corner/side where Eastern's last drive happened. But please, don't let me piss on Eastern's dominance over Kevin King and Travell Dixon.ApostleofGrief said:

Eastern was firmly in that second game, my recollection is leading at least once, possibly twice.haie said:

They lead by 1 point, maybe 6 in the 3rd quarter, but they couldn't stop UW's offense. Shelton was getting hands-to-the-face calls for dominating their OL, and Petersen's personnel decisions communicate that despite his high praise of Adams, this was another scrimmage to see who could play.ApostleofGrief said:

He is so pleased with his portrait that he wants to jack off, but holding his glasses instead of his weiner is more acceptable.SpoonieLuv said:Why is he holding his glasses in his portrait?

sure, sure, Eastern couldn't stop UW's offense as you say. But you neglect to say mention that UW COULDN'T STOP EASTERN'S OFFENSE either. Dude the game was like 55 - 54 or whatever!haie said:

That's the problem with these internets arguments! There is always somebody spinning and twisting. -
EWU never led by more than 1. Their last TD wasn't quite garbage time since there was 3:14 left in the game and made the score 59-52.

Adams and that lunchpail-type receiver he was throwing to were good players. And they were throwing on Dixon, King, and Baker and Jones making their HS debut. Good situation for them, and they took advantage of it.
@CFetters_Nacho_Lover
Good strategy or not, UW was milking down the clock at that point. They were playing way off, and at that point EW was using every down (and some bad calls) to move the chains. After that touchdown UW got maybe one first and took a knee. -
