NCAA Commission

Oh good...let's bring in government people! GP in both parties are known for not only, getting things done wrong, but well known for their slow efficiency and slow expediency in results. That will work wonders. 
I like that they are focusing on the one and done rule:
"The NCAA’s relationship with the NBA, and the challenging effect the NBA’s so-called “one and done” rule has had on college basketball, including how the NCAA can change its own eligibility rules to address that dynamic."

Well if there needs to be one, she is a fine choice. I believe she is a big sports fan and I am also pretty sure she is one smart lady.
In fairness, she has spent far more time in academia than in government. I like that she isn’t an NCAA insider.Oh good...let's bring in government people!

Agree. And even her time in government was as an appointed official. I think there is a big difference. The appointed cabinet members seem to have a much shorter shelf life than elected politicians. Probably because they had to work hard to get where they are and they quickly get sick of the lying, incompetent bullshit that goes on in elected government.
Why not? If anyone is expecting sanctions from the FBI investigations you are dreaming. Any adjustment to the one and done would benefit Purdue.
She is very smart. She is also a world-class piano player. But, she's never seemed to me to be an original, independent thinker as opposed to someone who implements someone else's policies.
Let's face it -- if this commission, as Emmert's statement says, is going to focus on: "The NCAA’s relationship with the NBA, and the challenging effect the NBA’s so-called 'one and done' rule has had on college basketball," the NCAA is (1) getting ready to place at least some of the blame on the NBA instead of making a decision that it feels is the best for its constituency, and (2) implicitly admitting that the multi-billion-dollar NCAA cannot independently solve its own problems. Surely, the NCAA could establish its own rule about its own "student-athletes" without caring what the NBA does.
Out of 14 members of the commission (as listed in the post above) only one appears to be president of a university that even has an athletic program. Also, Emmert is a member, Gee, does anyone think Emmert will stand aside and let the commission operate freely?
I love college basketball, but I really do think there are ways the NCAA could solve this problem without whining about the NBA.
It's still the NCAA. All I can hear coming out of this is "yada, yada, blah, blah, blah."
She was an original member of the College Football Playoff Selection Committee, I think.
Yes she was and replying to another post she did not want the. E the commisner of the NFL. They wanted her.
It's absurd that the NCAA needs to call a council in the first place. What's the NCAA's job? Enforce the rules?
According to an article in 2002 in the NY Times, she wanted the job. I tried to post the link but it didn't work but pretty easy to find if you look.
She's a huge sports fan who has stated she wants to be commish of the NFL. She will do a great job.Oh good...let's bring in government people!
