I presume that was directed towards my post.
First, I assumed that most who follow collegiate athletics would recognize the fact that TITLE IX based dictates to Universities by the Federal office responsible for enforcement of that act will inherently have a major impact on collegiate athletics. The current 'rape hysteria' on college campuses is due to a 2010 dear colleague memo outlining a laundry list of new demands Universities were told to follow in order to avoid an investigation that could result in losing federal $. Among those mandates micromanaging the student disciplinary processes related to sexual assault, are demands that Universities offer alleged victims the ability to demand a no contact order in certain circumstances as soon as the complaint is made (which means to effectively bar the accused student from campus based solely on the word of the accuser).
Assume for a moment that Dobbs was suspended the Thursday prior to last years SC game, but a handful of people may have known it was coming on Tuesday or Wednesday? Could they have possibly made a ton of $ in such a scenario? Are there groups of people who would pay a few thousand dollars to a female student to falsely accuse Dobbs of a sexual assault, demand the no contact order be implemented, just after a bunch of $ in Vegas was dumped on the Cocks? But no, this kangaroo 'guilty until proven innocent' sexual assault adjudication process has no effect on VOL football and is purely political according to you.
Or another example. Girl who is 'seeing' an all american player everyone knows is destined to be a first round draft pick. Girl upon being dumped just prior to said players final season decides that she doesn't want to forfeit the rich lifestyle she had envisioned, and accordingly offers said player two options: pay me or I'll claim rape, get you suspended, and the NFL won't touch you until at least the last day of the draft. Prior to 2011, UT had an adjudication process that would have likely prevented her from pulling such a scheme off. Under the current system thanks to the federal mandate, the player is likely going to be dealing with one question, where do I get this $. Turns out, the girlfriend the whole time was being paid under the table by an agents runner to set up just this sort of scenario-now the agent comes in to play 'problem solver' as planned all along. Two years down the road yahoo sports breaks story of our star player from a championship team signing with an agent during the middle of the season.
Nope, no effect on Vol football at all. While I know these are hypothetical, they are just two examples of a myriad of ways that this mandate can be exploited by the nefarious profiteers who target big time college athletes for profit.
Finally, I'm not really interested in taking advice from someone who is in no position to offer it, especially with such unwarranted amounts of condescension. If you have your own copy of Strunk and White I would be more than happy to offer you some advice on where you can place it, but considering the way you drew conclusions on my last post I don't want some poor donkey running around your town with a book in it's colon.
