The NCAA is/can be bad....but I don't see how they've done bad by Bree

I've read of a lot of cases where someone has gotten a 6th or 7th (or more!) year. Which is crazy. But I've read about cases where that extra year was denied, and it seemed unfair based on the circumstances. Also crazy. There should be a "spirit of the rule" aspect that comes in to play. Having said all that, THIS case doesn't seem like one where the student athlete is getting a raw deal. If she can document where someone at USC compliance told her she was not eligible to transfer, AND she can document the alleged abuse/mistreatment...then maybe?

You know Bree's lawsuit wouldn't be the first such exposure. We ALL know!**

The saddest part.....
2hhoop3 • 04/06/26 08:47 PM ET
Yep, complicit by association plus not showing Babcock the door
RJHokie • 04/06/26 08:52 PM ET
Babcock has overstayed his welcome. Change is needed.**

VermontDDS • 04/06/26 08:16 PM ET
with her, it would be the overall "clock" (5 years to play 4)

I was thinking the same thing yesterday .....
hokietony • 04/07/26 09:09 AM ET
Yeah, I don't think "bad advice" is going to be a mitigating factor**

Yeah, what was their excuse, uh, reason? Hope she gets justice.**
TomTurkey • 04/06/26 08:08 PM ET
NCAA rules: if someone transfers to OU or Texas = Eligible
