They should have already done this by now. SMH...

The NCAA probably has no option other than to say that they cannot be in the game. Sounds to me like this stems from the O'Bannon lawsuit.

The NCAA needs to be disbanded, I've been saying this for forever. They are corrupt and greedy and someday soon I hope they get what's coming to them. Them and the NFL act like they have as much power as the government or something, it's ridiculous.

Or a big name CONFERENCE. I've got this feeling that one day we're going to see the S.E.C. separate themselves from the NCAA. That may actually be a good thing and get the ball rolling. It's just ridiculous for them to act this way.

I'm betting the Pac-12 goes first....then Big10.........then the rest.

This is unfortunate, but the NCAA is being consistent with decade of video game experience. If your name is represented in a consumer product, it's a violation of the individuals NCAA eligibility. The NCAA wants to keep their game amateur and pure. I think it's reasonable even if it does punish us the gaming consumers.

Still the NCAA is hypocritical as they pretend to be amateur while allowing schools to sign mega sportswear contracts and make millions in merchandise. If they were consistent, the merchandising of the schools for profit would be illegal too.

I agree accept that it is not consistent.(in video games maybe) Maroney doing all those Team USA gymnastics endorsements (McDonald's, Adidas and NBC to name a few) and commercials but now competing in NCAA is kinda bogus. She is just one example I could name ten to twenty. Some who were in college when they did it, like Rogers. I doubt they recieved no compensation for all those adds.

These girls in the game were not getting paid. They were not representing college sports. IDK I feel the NCAA shows favortism and is corrupt.
