Kind of dreary here this AM.  A bit of rain and chilly, I think they had snow in the mountains.  

I'm off to Florida on Monday for baseball, again.

Bright sun and 60s today.   But we may be getting a polar vortex hit here soon.  Or not.

I root for chaos, so another UT investigation and thrashing would be entertaining.

But I also root for the inevitable destruction of the NCAA, and for bitch-slaps, the latter of which Chancellor Plowman just delivered in force to the weasels in writing. 

I think I'm good either way this goes.

If somehow the NCAA goes away, something similar would replace it.

Yup.  There's always going to be a governing body that must create rules, and there's always going to be schools that like the rules, schools that don't like the rules, schools that obey the rules, and schools that break the rules.

Even within the two big conferences remaining, there are schools that will thrive under certain sets of rules, and schools that will suffer.  It's silly to assume that Vanderbilt and Northwestern are going to share all the same values and concerns that Alabama and Ohio State have, and therefore it's silly to believe they're all going to move lock-step in making a unified ruleset that pleases everyone.

absolutely. and from there it gets more layered than that. within the schools that follow the rules let's say at an institutional level there will always be some people (who are in a position to have some sort of impact) that don't & then all of it has the potential to ebb over time at least at certain places. i'm not a ncaa hater but at the same time have no regard for the way it's been run as its become increasingly spineless & cowardly in recent years.
