Hard to trash our AD pushing this, but I'm sure the knuckle-draggers will find a way. Also, don't close the book on satellite camps.
NCAA already did. But I do hope that the outcry is loud enough and long enough for them to reconsider. But I highly doubt the SEC or ACC will ever do anything other than fight hard against it. And it's the perfect set up for them. Bully the NCAA into doing their bidding, and when the public complains the NCAA takes the heat.

Like I said. I don't believe this is done. We have people fighting for us (crazy I know)
The NCAA didn't close these camps .... the bylaws allow for votes on these topics .. the ACC drafted a proposal to ban satellite camps and by vote of the conferences the proposal passed ... the BIg was the only power conference that voted for the satellite camps ....
the power 5 conferences could disband from the NCAA and the vote against satellite camps would have been even more lopsided against the BIG as some of the smaller conferences voted to continue these camps
There's a lot of talk now about a few conferences whose official vote went against the wishes of the majority of thier members. Smells fishy and I hope this turns into full blown scandal. But I won't be holding my breath
I wonder if the NCAA allowed paying for parents on OV in response to the backlash they are getting for the ban on camps. I find the timing a little too convenient.

I read where the SEC didn't vote against a complete ban on satellite camps like was reported, but they requested it be limited by what coaches could attend. ACC voted completely against it. Seems like the reporting on what was requested vs what was stated is off. However, Oliver Luck made mention that it's still up for further discussion.
Like how in the 12 member Pac 12 where 7 schools voted for satelite camps and only 5 voted against them yet the Pac 12 conference rep voted against them anyway?
Back to topic.
This is VERY good for NU. Remember over the last few years, NU seemed to lose the Momma vote. If Momma can come, then that's another tool in the tool bag.

What exactly did Leach say when he quoted the votes? I cannot remember... but the majority were supposedly for it.
Leach told Rich Eisen 11 voted in favor and one abstained but he's the only one that has said that number I think, and he didn't know which school abstained. Several radio guys out west have said they were told it was 7-5 in favor by sources.
I've heard Pac12 and Sun Belt as two conferences in which the majority wanted satellite camps, yet their conference representative voted against. There may be more. How that happens without that dude (or dudette) losing their job escapes me. Unless there is shady business behind the scenes, and I actually expect that in this case.
Maybe those conferences were just taking their cue from the Republican party.

So if you're the parents and your kid already knows where he wants to go to school where do you go for the other four visits?
UNLV could use up their allotted visits with no so serious players.

Likely. Considering I don't coach football. But as a blotard I am not sure why you need to be there. I figure if you met him for 5 minutes his genius would rub off on you by osmosis.
