You have to marvel at the NCAA’s ability to consistently wrong about almost everything. At the very least, the NCAA is being consistent here in denying any and everyone these waivers. And fwiw, I think the rule is dumb and needs to be eliminated. Edited November 16, 2023 by The Evil Genius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course they did. It sucks for them, but that's the current rules. Maybe it will spark change, like adding additional ways to qualify for bowls/playoffs during the first two years besides there not being enough 6-6 teams.

PleaseBlitz Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 I did a little bit more research on this. BTW The Athletics has done really good reporting here. First, and correct me if this is wrong, but JMU is likely to get a bowl game because of the lack of 6-6 teams. Per The Athetic: https://theathletic.com/5067160/2023/11/15/james-madison-ncaa-waiver/ Quote James Madison is a second-year FCS-FBS transition team, meaning it is not eligible for the postseason this year, unless there aren’t enough 6-6 bowl teams. Despite the denial, JMU is still likely to reach a bowl game due to a lack of enough 6-6 teams. Further, I initially thought that a 2 year bowl ban was ****ing stupid, if a team moves up and deserves a bowl game anyways, they should get to play. However, after reading all of the transition rules and why they exist, I think they kind of make sense. And certainly my default position is the rules are the rules and if everyone knows the rules going in, then they should play by the rules. End of the day, hopefully JMU gets the bowl anyways.

JamesMadisonSkins Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 (edited) Harrisonburg is insane right now. The entire McAfee show is basically skewering the NCAA and the crowd is absolutely massive. F*ck Dan Snyder ... let's go!

JamesMadisonSkins Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 Something tells me Gameday is going to be pretty insane tomorrow. I know several dozen people coming down for the game tomorrow morning, and I know of nobody down there today, so the crowd is going to be 3-4x+ what's there for McAfee.

The Evil Genius Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 Might explain why Michigan folded. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/38922324/new-ncaa-evidence-changed-michigan-stance-investigation Quote Sources told ESPN that university leadership this week has shifted its tone from the stern rebuke of the league's sanctions to a growing acceptance that the football program might be dealing with significant NCAA infractions that could include a failure to properly monitor the program on Harbaugh's part.
