I share your frustration. I will say that each committee member has a term

limit and the spots on the committee do rotate among all the schools to ensure everyone has a voice. Since people have different opinions on an issue, it does help explain why it appears the NCAA's opinion is inconsistent. Should the NCAA's opinion be consistent? Probably. However, if you view the NCAA as being not that much different than Congress, then you could argue it is suppose to be a living organization that evolves and adapts with the changing of the times. Generally speaking, a rigid fixed opinion isn't supposed to adapt regardless of what is going on around it. Hence why I thought maybe it is time to hold the schools more accountable for the decisions they make when they are represented on the various committees.

I agree. The role of the NCAA President is to be the face of the organize
VTHokie2000 • 04/15/26 12:01 PM ET
That was basically the NCAA's argument

It’s the judge, too, that is a total clown. He could have ripped the NCAA
HolidayInnHokie • 04/15/26 09:57 AM ET
I did not have a good feeling about the judge on Monday
VTChip • 04/15/26 10:01 AM ET
From the news reports posted......

Sounds like he didn’t want to deal with it.

Sorry, I jumped in below but I'll ask you here since you're on the inside
JoesterVT • 04/15/26 09:41 AM ET
Actually you are missing a lot
VTChip • 04/15/26 09:48 AM ET
Agree there was a compelling case. And Bre has excellent legal counsel**
VT825 • 04/15/26 10:44 AM ET
Was it presented in court why the NCAA initially ruled against her?
JoesterVT • 04/15/26 09:51 AM ET
thanks...I see you fleshed out your previous post, so never mind...lol**
JoesterVT • 04/15/26 09:45 AM ET

JoesterVT • 04/15/26 09:37 AM ET
Yes she did
VTChip • 04/15/26 09:44 AM ET
I know VT won’t but some school will and should just play an athlete in
Brewing_Hokie • 04/15/26 10:28 AM ET
That's why I asked above, having only read what was previously reported**
JoesterVT • 04/15/26 09:47 AM ET
It's a very fair question
