Me and you are living in an apartment...We are getting harrassed, so my dad says shit Son, I'll pay for you an apt off campus...

Rent is 3,000 per month...

But, we're student athletes, NCAA don't want us working...OK...So, my dad says fucking it, you two pay 750 a piece, I'll pay the rest...Because its my dad, and you're my roomate...You are in violation of an NCAA extra benefit rule...

Are you fucking serious..?

I hate them fucking crooks too, they fucked over my boy Jeremy Bloom and a bunch other former Colorado players. What's the NCAA's motto again? Oh yeah, it's "Only we( the NCAA)can profit from the blood,sweat and tears of young men. The prick that runs the NCAA now, is the same cocksucker who fired Bobby knight.

Yea...this is just stupid. The NCAA just goes too far sometimes. I can understand incentives from individuals but not from a dad like that

It doesn't even mention that Matt wasn't paying his full way either. Correct me if I'm wrong, wouldn't he be in violation too?

According to them, every USC player is in violation of some stupid rule

NCAA is ridiculous on almost all occasions. I don't think I've ever been completely happy and satisfied with them.
