Some solid proposals on the table. I particularly like the stiffer penalties like lifetime bans for coaches caught cheating and 5 year postseason bans for programs caught cheating. Also, if the NBA refuses to change its draft eligibility rule, making first year players ineligible, and locking scholarships for 3 or 4 years if a player leaves after 1 year.
Disagree. The threat of a locked scholarship would make a school back away from a sham recruitment of a player with no academic interest. If he wants to get paid immediately, there are already options available. It's basically telling a player that college is not a vestibule before going pro. You've stated your view, so there's no need to reply.Locking scholarships is absurd. You punish a school/program because a kid wants to go get paid like he should have been able to do all along? It then takes away a scholarship from another kid who needs it. It seems to actually run against everything the NCAA should stand for.

they used to be ineligible for quite a few years. this included the year up to Jabar under Wooden.Making freshman ineligible is complete horse shit and not surprised banjo would think it’s a good idea.
colleges are for getting a education 1st NOT a one year stop to the pro's....with the implicit understanding that you're pursuing a degree.
Funny how supposed basic functionality is now portrayed as idealism.Idealism vs realism. Not going there.
Don't worry, none of these reforms would affect Iowa's juggernaut status.colleges are for getting a education 1st NOT a one year stop to the pro's.
it is people like you has this screwed up Idea that its nothing but the pro's minor league farm system.
Wrong. College has to take back ownership of collegiate sports and stop being a minor league for the NBA.Making freshman ineligible is complete horse shit and not surprised banjo would think it’s a good idea.

how are these million of people being forced to attend college?It has nothing to do with education or corruption. Millions of people are forced to attend college. Some people ITT like the idea because they think it'd benefit their program. But it won't.

Just a few comments:First, the initial assertion by the commission is a lie. Players do have a choice to attend college. From the perspective of NCAA bureaucrats, evidently playing in Europe or D-League do not count as options.
Additionally, whether or not a person intends to stay in college to get a degree is really no one's business and the idea of "regulating" a student's intentions is laughable.
Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg didn't get their degrees. They were gifted and they made the wise choice to pursue goals and learn outside of the classroom. A career in professional sports, likewise, is one of the best paying at high levels.
If it was up to the colleges, we can guarantee that neither Gates nor Zuckerberg could've worked a day in the professional world with out dangling around a degree. With athletes, it's not really any different. Again, it's all about money. It really has nothing to do with education. Education can be obtained by these players outside of college campuses that is arguable more valuable than being in school.
The one and done is being used as an excuse for systemic problems in the NCAA. To reiterate, cheating and corruption far pre-dates one and done. With or with out one and done, the shoe companies and millions of dollars are still on the table.
strange My oldest doesn't have a degree but is General Manager of a Menards, my 2nd oldest doesn't have a degree but is a Manager of a resteraunt my 3rd oldest is the General Manager of a Men's Wearhouse closing store and does not have a degree,Any employer who won't hire with out a degree is "forcing" someone to attend college by their logic. NBA doesn't even require a degree.
why 2020 before they can implement the end of the 1 n Done rule? or is that a cop out so they can try to keep extending the rule?
Just a few comments:
Regardless of other peoples' or groups' opinions, playing overseas or entering the D-League are professional options for a player to earn money.
Gates and Zuckerberg didn't attend college, and certainly young talented players shouldn't be forced to go to college either. One thing Gates and Zuckerberg didn't do was take a scholarship at the expense of someone wishing to go to college to study, and neither should someone receive a bogus scholarship.
I don't believe the one and done issue has been characterized as the be all and end all to rid college basketball of corruption. Nevertheless, it's certainly an element in causing corruption.
We also used to stone people to death for adultery and wouldn’t let a woman in the bed if she was on her period.they used to be ineligible for quite a few years. this included the year up to Jabar under Wooden.
