Guy has a law degree, he's all about MSU athletics, and he has a very "17 you" attitude. How is he not already in charge of things? Grassroots this ****.

Hmmm, I'd need to think on this a little while, but you might just be on to something.

Couldnt be more perfect.

Late in my career at MSU they gave him a second position as like student counsel or something random. Basically he has a second office somewhere on campus and students can set up appointments with him to get legal advice. He's basically been prepped for the job, although not intentionally. Give it to the man.

Him and Brian Shoup were 2 of the most intelligent professors I ever had and they're best buds and in the legal field. Shoup might not join him because he's a legit professor but Waide is a staff instructor. He could do both.

My ideal director would be someone like the late Johnnie Cochran. 17 whether you did the crime or not...I`m being paid to get you out of this ****.

Hell, dead Johnnie Cochran could be an improvent.

You can't turn yourself in if you are dead. That's step 1 in NCAA compliance in 2013.

There are people with law degrees who I wouldn't want in that position...

...with that said, I'd prefer to have someone with NCAA experience. And no, I'm not talking about Jackie Wayne Sherrill or Ron Polk.

Exactly

what my point was, above. Just bc someone has a law degree doesn't mean they're going to be some all-knowing, super human to have in this position.

State of the NCAA as well as proactive schools raiding its compliance dept.

SI spoke with more than 20 current or former NCAA employees about the troubles of the NCAA enforcement staff for a lengthy story in this week's Sports Illustrated. A portrait emerged of a department battered by turnover, afraid of lawsuits and overwhelmed by scandal. One ex-enforcement official told SI, "The time is ripe to cheat. There's no policing going on."
Morale is at an all-time low among the enforcement staff as several respected veterans -- Dave Didion (Auburn), Marcus Wilson (Maryland) and Chance Miller (South Carolina) -- have left for college compliance positions since April. On Tuesday the department received another huge blow when Rachel Newman-Baker, the managing director for enforcement, development and investigators, left for a compliance job at Kentucky. Newman-Baker is the highest ranking member of the department to leave since enforcement vice president Julie Roe Lach was fired in February in the wake of missteps in the Miami investigation.
"With Rachel gone," another ex-NCAA staffer said, "there's really only two investigators (Angie Cretors and LuAnn Humphrey) left with experience in major football and basketball cases."

Aug 5, 2013 ... Nine-year veteran of NCAA, Angie Cretors, goes to UConn.

In the last five years we have overhauled our entire athletics department...new basketball coach, new baseball coach, new football coach, new athletics director. However, you could probably make an argument that our compliance department should have been the first to be restructured. Well..maybe second after Croom.

I wholeheartedly disagree. BECAUSE I'M THE GUY FOR THE JOB.

"IF THE NCAA CAN'T PROVE ****, THEY MUST ACQUIT."

/I also conveniently meet all your prerequisites.
