Excerpt (see news article cited directly above):

  • (NCAA) President Mark Emmert recently told The Associated Press he was concerned about the perception that money is driving the decisions, saying, "this is not the NFL, the NBA, it's not a business." He urged school presidents to consider factors besides revenue when choosing conference affiliation.

Commentary:
  • NCAA sports is “not a business?” 
  • WOW! That’s outrageous! 
  • Mr. Emmert: please make that same statement in a Congressional hearing, under oath, subject to penalty of perjury.
