The inability of the leaders to say no to those who they need to is bursting budgets all the country in college sports.

One conference wants to pause enforcement and some want to continue forward and prosecute they offending schools and one conference is talking out both sides of their mouth. Find out which conference is say what and why.
They claim that budgets are out of control. Some schools are handling in a way that they promised to that not to do. I tell you promise you what promise isn't kept.
Speaking of budget busting, what two letter word is not being said by Presidents, A.D.'s and Coaches and why not saying that is costing them billions of dollars in total in college sports. Agents, player reps and players abilities to always get the leaders to say a three letter words. If this is big business way is is it so had to say the two letter word that leads to control. Control of budgets, people, school athletic depts and conferences.
Lastly, a racial issue with a deeper dive into why it's happening around the country at the Power 4 level of college basketball at this time of year. It's shameful at a glance and mis-leading on another level.
