Another state AG is threatening action against the NCAA.
The Ohio AG’s letter is similar to the NC’s AG letter in the Tez Walker situation.
“In essence, the NCAA has imposed a sweeping, unilateral, one-year non-compete restriction, in violation of both state and federal law.”
NEW: Ohio’s Attorney General

is threatening legal action against the NCAA, after Cincinnati transfer Aziz Bandaogo was declared ineligible.
“That decision strikes me as wrong—and likely illegal.”

I believe that is now 6 state AGs or other public officials that have threatened the NCAA with legal actions this year, over application of NCAA bylaws.
Tenn
NC
VA
FL
WVA

It is hilarious that these AGs have been for this stuff all this time and as soon as it is going to cost them a few games, they are against it.

NCAA governance structure is broken & has been for a very long time. These periodic tweaks/adjustments in decision making have solved nothing. Charlie Baker said it would be people over process under his leadership. Well, that’s not happening.

"sports" anchor". And nice touch by the coach of "mental" issues. When I read a 5 page letter (from a lawyer) I wonder if/when this BB "star" got his current school's compliance administrator 2 ensure he was eligible. Do we have those facts? I am no fan of the National Cartel AA
