Leaving it to be the wild wild west wouldn't be that great a solution, either.
With no NCAA, you'd have schools providing cash, hookers, and fake diplomas to high school students. Oh, wait...
If you're going to mix sports with money, you do need some limits, or you're going to have a handful of teams manipulating the situation.
Seems to me the NCAA does at least an OK job of looking out for student athletes. Many get an education out of college sports. Some get pro careers.

Yep, I concur with that. He was cooking locally grown high quality pork, and was meticulous with his heat, which I suspect had more to do with it than anything else, but yeah, I'd say salt and pepper is, indeed, a dry rub.
it seems to me the NCAA decision is correct.
Depends... The NCAA was original a program that looked out for student athletes. Now it's a quasi-governing body in charge of maintaining a somewhat level playing field for teams/schools.
There's no doubt that this is a net negative for recruits. I suppose one's opinion as to if this was a good or bad decision depends on how much of a negative you think this is for a recruit, and how much parody it provides (insures?) across the CFB landscape.
Personally, I think there are better solutions that benefit the recruit without giving a school too much power. Maybe restrict the number of in-state and out of state camps or require staffs from multiple universities/conferences to be present. To me, this seems like a not very well thought out solution by the NCAA.
You would too if you got shot in the neck by a Sharpy dart.
Lets be honest, I don't think Buzz will leave for Memphis (I'm knocking on wood as I write), but I would kill for 11 sweet 16s. I was in school when we last went to the big dance with Zabian Dowdell and company and It was incredible. Yes, I know its way easier to make the tournament from an easier conference, but if they made it to the sweet 16 they still had to win some games. I'm not saying Memphis = UCLA, but I wouldn't laugh at 11 sweet 16s regardless of who they are with.
These have all been awesome so far and somehow I keep forgetting to check for them. Thanks for the post.
Your view of the character deaths seems to be more in line with how the show does things than how GRRM originally wrote it. While he doesn't shy away from killing off characters, the deaths are never inserted just to shock the reader. Every named character's death has either been because their character arc was complete, or because that death actually contributed to the plot in some way. Now, on first read, the deaths are shocking, but given a little thought, every single one of them served a purpose, and many were foreseeable.

# | Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh to deliver commencement address at Paramus Catholic Nah, Harbaugh is still probably legally insane, flame away! ;)
When searching for an ideal location for this bowl game I searched "toilet city" on Google. This was the first hit:
City of Charlottesville: Toilet Rebates
He said toilet bowl not the entire cesspool every toilet dumps into
Not enough fans.
What about Charlottesville, VA?
any suggestion that the ribs aren't what they're cracked up to be didn't go to the right place(s)
You're absolutely right, but then you can replace "ribs" with any other food and you instantly have the apology for any regional or local dish. "You didn't go to the right place" is pretty much the "well, that's just like your opinion, man" of food arguments.

# | Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh to deliver commencement address at Paramus Catholic Frank didn't do email; that was his administrative assistant.
On a side note, I'm totally going to send funny cat videos to Bud. He strikes me as a guy who loves funny cat videos.
I'd argue that it's more about certain large schools trying to maintain their existing advantages in recruiting
no top program is likely to offer a scholarship based solely on a Hudl video or a Rivals article.
If, as you state, the goal of these camps was to maintain the recruiting advantage of certain schools, it seems to me the NCAA decision is correct.
Contacts.
I'd be extremely surprised if they weren't.
swear to god if they kill hodar...
You're good, bud. Thanks for the edit.

# | Sleeker Settle Making Noise on a Deep Defensive Line, Tremaine Edmunds Set for Breakout Year In a recent Norm Wood article, Moto described playing injured much of the season. Said he tweaked his knee and wore a sleeve most of the year. Then after the bowl game he got an MRI and apparently he been playing with a torn meniscus most of the season. That had to slow him down a little bit even if it was just a nuisance. Also broke a finger during bowl practice which affected his play in that game.
My hope for him is that he can stay healthy so he can really play to his potential. Same goes for Lydon and Huselkamp as they were both banged up for most of the season too. We need healthy linebackers.

I came here ready to flame Harbaugh, but you really took the fuel out of my flamethrower.
Fans 4.5 hours away are in the university's primary market.
I don't think you could pick up as much from someone filming with an iphone as you could from TV coverage.
If the coach feels that this game just isn't important enough to give anybody even the small advantage that they might get from any game film they might acquire, I'm OK with that.
I live too far away to attend the spring game, but I won't lose any sleep over it at all.
