Time to rearrange the deck chairs on that top-heavy, bloated boat of bureaucracy called the NCAA. Think of all those staff who have lived so well for so long on the backs of student-athletes....maybe they will have to do some good for those same athletes, at long last.

McGraw was firmly against one of Kaplan's recommendations: that the men's and women's Final Fours be held concurrently in the same city. She thinks it would mean the women's event would be perpetually overshadowed.
Schaefer felt that way, too, and said he felt the women's Final Four has been strong enough for a while to keep standing on its own. UConn's Geno Auriemma said he wasn't entirely closed off to considering the men's and women's combo, though, and VanDerveer said the same.
"My first reaction to that was, 'No way!'" VanDerveer said. "But I've been re-thinking it. Some of it is we're so used to getting treated as second-class, we think that's what will happen. But if the microscope was on it if we were all in the same place, more people would see it."
Louisville women's coach Jeff Walz said he wasn't opposed to having both Final Fours in the same city, although he was concerned if it would be a bigger logistical problem than people think.www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/story/_/id/31952609/women-college-basketball-coaches-hopeful-kaplan-gender-equity-review-instigates-change

I must say, Sally Jenkins nailed it in that article. Now we shall see what happens. As long as the top doesn't change, I don't have much hope. They am obfuscating lot, to be sure.

It is an amazingly clear and concise report. Should be read (and is easy to read) by all fans of the game.

With NIL and this damning report, can / will substantial structural and personnel changes be made??? Emmert and his enablers need a new organization to cheapen, and I almost wish the women could have their own regulatory & marketing agency primarily staffed by women like Val Ackerman?? Unlikely to happen, but the NCAA needs to change!! /photo/1

As we all know, the fish rots from the head.... Emmert needs to be gone. WITHOUT A PAYOUT.
