"I do have some good news on edited roster names appearing online. They do! Tom Vuong confirmed this for me this evening after seeing Craig's comments about it on Console Sports. According to Tom, this was in fact a bug that was addressed during the cycle. I'm sure this will be welcome news in the community, so please pass it on. Thanks!"

Sounds like that to me...

They probably saw the backlash (should of known that was coming) and is using this as an excuse...

Guess we will see.

Gents,
Here's an update...and its great news. We just got this email at 7:06pm EST (along with the rest of the NCAA community leaders...)

News from RAC- edited names WILL appear online in next gen.

Not really though, EA could easily argue that the names being recorded are just various names in case someone would like to use their own name in the game.

That's my point though, online isn't a different beast because the user who input the names on his console is the only one seeing them, not the other person.

See this thread:

Houston, we have a problem (Roster transfers not working on XBox 360 any longer)

Guess there's no need for this thread any longer.
