There are two things that have started to turn me off to big time D1 athletics over the last few years.

1.) The dispicable and self-serving governing body of collegiate athletics.  I am sick and tired of this organization that makes millions and millions of dollars exploiting kids and trying to portray themselves as the guardian of purity in sports. IMHO, it is a sham. They allow the Ohio State athletes to play in the BCS game in order to keep ratings and put money into their pocket book. Meanwhile, the rule these individuals "broke" was to sell their own personal possessions for a benefit.

2.) College Coaches.  It is disgusting the way in which coaches are breaking rules and able to run and hide before any disciplinary actions occur.  Pete Carroll running to the nfl right before huge sanctions were placed on USC, Calipari moving on to Kentucky amid an academic scandal,  and now Tressel being able to resign from OSU.  While some may say being forced to resign from your job is punishment, do anyone not believe he won't have a job with ABC/ESPN before the football season next year as an analyst.

Although we've disagreed a couple of times in the past, its about impossible to find even one word of your post thats not the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

The NCAA seems composed largely of fossils even older than myself who have mostly wondered away from various Alzheimer's units.
Major college coaches are secure in the knowledge that they can commit multiple serious rules violations and either be hired by a competitor or one of the broadcast media networks.
While it certainly wouldn't completely solve the problem, a coach's violation should follow the coach in that any penalties imposed on the school where the coach was when he committed the violations should also be imposed on any school who hires him. Seemingly that would remove one possibility relative to future employment of the felonious coach and hopefully help kick the offender out of the coaching fraternity.

CCIWfan,
Are you saying a coach that violates ncaa rules should no longer be allowed to earn a living in his or her sport?

Andone,
Should the athletes be penalized also at the next school that hires a rules violator?  It seems to me, if sanctions such as bowl eligibility followed the coach, penalizing the athletes at the next school would be inevitable.

Also in some cases, recruiting sanctions do follow coaches.  I remember when Kelvin Sampson left oklahoma his recruiting sanctions on phone calls followed him to Indiana.

[AndOne]

CP--

Good question. I really don't think the athletes at the coach's new school should be penalized as they didn't do anything wrong. This is something that would have to be looked at. What I had in mind when suggesting penalties follow a coach from one school to another that might hire him was to effectively make it prohibitive for any other school to actually hire any coach found to have committed major rules offenses at another school thus basically forcing the offending coach out of the profession. This would end the practice, as I believe CCIWFAN6 suggested, of a coach being able to screw the system and just move on to another school with no penalty to him. I guess the drawback to my original proposal would be that it would penalize innocent athletes at the new school. However, if the administrators at the new school knew this it would be a good reason for them not to hire the bum in the first place. The whole idea is probably illegal as it would enable a method of preventing employment, but it would be nice if an offending coach could somehow be penalized rather than the school where he committed the offenses. Maybe, the solution would be for the NCAA to make a rule that if a coach at an NCAA member institution commits certain major offenses, he is prohibited from working for any other NCAA member for a certain length of time, preferably for life--as with a lifetime ban for drug use in various pro sports. Any way you slice it, the current system stinks.

There are two things that have started to turn me off to big time D1 athletics over the last few years.

1.) The dispicable and self-serving governing body of collegiate athletics.  I am sick and tired of this organization that makes millions and millions of dollars exploiting kids and trying to portray themselves as the guardian of purity in sports. IMHO, it is a sham. They allow the Ohio State athletes to play in the BCS game in order to keep ratings and put money into their pocket book. Meanwhile, the rule these individuals "broke" was to sell their own personal possessions for a benefit.

2.) College Coaches.  It is disgusting the way in which coaches are breaking rules and able to run and hide before any disciplinary actions occur.  Pete Carroll running to the nfl right before huge sanctions were placed on USC, Calipari moving on to Kentucky amid an academic scandal,  and now Tressel being able to resign from OSU.  While some may say being forced to resign from your job is punishment, do anyone not believe he won't have a job with ABC/ESPN before the football season next year as an analyst.

Although we've disagreed a couple of times in the past, its about impossible to find even one word of your post thats not the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

The NCAA seems composed largely of fossils even older than myself who have mostly wondered away from various Alzheimer's units.
Major college coaches are secure in the knowledge that they can commit multiple serious rules violations and either be hired by a competitor or one of the broadcast media networks.
While it certainly wouldn't completely solve the problem, a coach's violation should follow the coach in that any penalties imposed on the school where the coach was when he committed the violations should also be imposed on any school who hires him. Seemingly that would remove one possibility relative to future employment of the felonious coach and hopefully help kick the offender out of the coaching fraternity.

CCIWfan,
Are you saying a coach that violates ncaa rules should no longer be allowed to earn a living in his or her sport?

Andone,
Should the athletes be penalized also at the next school that hires a rules violator?  It seems to me, if sanctions such as bowl eligibility followed the coach, penalizing the athletes at the next school would be inevitable.

Also in some cases, recruiting sanctions do follow coaches.  I remember when Kelvin Sampson left oklahoma his recruiting sanctions on phone calls followed him to Indiana.

Not at all.  I would just simply like to see these individuals face the consequences of their actions.  Not be able to run to another job and hide.

I wonder if the trilobite I have lived during the devonian period.

[Pat Coleman]

I had braces for about 18 months but it fixed that.

[Mr. Ypsi]

I had braces for about 18 months but it fixed that.

Pat, are you, too, admitting to being more than 250 million years old?!

Strangely, most days I don't feel a day over 25 million.

(FWIW, the trilobite pictured on my t-shirt is believed to have died out around 330 million years ago - just in case anyone wondered how old my wife thinks I am! )

Any way you slice it, the current system stinks.  

Following posting my above answer to cardinalpride's question, I received a personal
e-mail providing the following interesting information relative to current NCAA policy in cases where a coach, guilty of rule violations at one institution, attempts to move to another NCAA member.

The source of the information informed me he didn't really care one way or the other whether or not I revealed his identity. Accordingly, I feel it advisable not to do so unless and until he actually requests his name be made public. Suffice it to say the source is a D3 head coach with a legal background whose team finished in the top 25 in the final D3 season poll.

Mark-

Hope all is well.

I read with interest your above post.  Your thoughts are quite insightful and maybe I can help you a bit...

What you are 'proposing' is already in play.  It is called a 'show-cause' order, or in the parlance of the NCAA, a 'show-cause' penalty.  Contrary to your thought, it is NOT an infringement of one's right to work, hence perfectly legal, and the NCAA has 'show-cause's' in place all over the country.

Another way of wording 'show-cause' is to say that the member institution has to show cause as to why they are hiring the bum (the penalized coach) and that there is not a better alternative, or alternatives, to hiring the bum, and therefore they are going to hire this tarnished coach.  That is a pretty steep burden to establish, as the member institution must show/prove that they couldn't find a better candidate than the one that has trampled all over the system.  In almost all situations there is such a broad spectrum of candidates available for most jobs out there that this is not even worth the school's time to try to show/prove something so ludicrous.

Hope this helps...

Oh yeah...most show-causes are for 5-10 years.

All the best,

********************************************************************

Additional information------

In the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), a show-cause penalty is an order saying that a coach involved in major rules violations at a university's athletic program may not be hired by any other NCAA member institutions without permission from the Infractions Committee for a set period of time. If a university seeks to hire such a coach, they must "show cause" as to why they should not be penalized for hiring him. Most schools will not even consider hiring a coach with a show-cause penalty in effect; hence the show-cause order effectively blacklists him from the collegiate coaching ranks for the duration of the penalty, and many coaches who are given such a penalty never coach again, even after the expiration of the penalty. The penalty is intended to follow a coach for violations that he had a role in committing.

Mark any updates from the Summer League?  Haven't been able to make it out there yet this year.

[Titan Q]

Someone familiar with a summer league in St. Louis that features a lot of D3 players recently told me that North Park guard Clayton Cahill is playing for the Fontbonne summer league team, and transferring to Fontbonne.  He was also quick to point out that he can't confirm this.

Any word if true, or maybe if Cahill is simply just playing with the Fontbonne guys this summer?
