Among DI football & basketball players..
the results of "a national survey of 30,000 Division I athletes, released by the NCAA this week"...
..."athletes want to spend less time on athletics" - more than FORTY PERCENT (40%) want more time off, extra days off - as they feel they are spending too much time involved with their sport.
...so watch for new NCAA proposals to limit games & practices...but leave a loophole for the BCS schools to do otherwise since they have more kids who are planning to make a career of their sport or go pro.
Every bit the politician, the NCAA head Mark Emmert - listed his top accomplishments in a speech last night...
Ranked right there at the top on his list - #1 in his proudest of bragging points---
FREE FOOD and SNACKS & extra cheeseburgers & 2nd helpings for the athletes!!!
"Emmert, who spoke Thursday evening in San Antonio, told the audience all three divisions should be proud of their recent accomplishments.
He noted changes such as the deregulation of rules regarding food and nutrition in Division I and II. ....."
...wow, what would college sports do without this guy's tireless efforts...
