NCAA "hopes" to have someone on record establishing a violation

[ImHurtinLinda]

by the Sidney's?

Hopes???? Really? Should the NCAA be hoping that someone has violated rules?? - kind of points to bias (similar to me "hoping" that ole miss loses to okstate).

I hope this isn't a witch hunt, but it sounds like it is.

Even if there is someone that will go on the record, what kind of credibility would they have??

Don't you think that with as many people that the Sidney's have been involved with (AAU and multiple High Schools) that there would be someone that is not a fan, and would spill it if they really had done something wrong???? - if you have looked, interviewed, and begged for six months, anything that you come up with now will be tainted to say the least.

Absurd.

Andy Katz's blog has a more detailed description

Of note:

Jackson said in the text that Webb said the eligibility center cannot declare a student-athlete ineligible based upon anonymous sources, but confirmed that they only have <span style="font-weight: bold;">anonymous sources</span> of information.

Apparently the NCAA has some "anonymous source." Probably someone from USC pulling a "Phil Fulmer" to take the NCAA heat off of their never ending investigation.

Jackson said the NCAA staffers wanted him to set up an interview with Reebok staffer Chris Rivers and an "elderly team mother from a Los Angeles high school.''

An elderly team mother? Really? What can she possibly tell them "on the record."

that's absurd.

Im actually surprised the NCAA doesn't cite anonymous sources.

Hell, their normal burden of proof in an investigation is ridiculously low. If Player A says someone paid him. All they need to find a violation is someone who says "yeah, player A told me they paid him."
