NCAA Forces EA Sports To Remove 13 Women From FIFA 16 Because, Uh, Rules?
No, no, no. Not her. The NCAA didn't force EA Sports to remove Alex Morgan, pictured above in FIFA 16. They did however force EA Sports to remove 13 other women from the game, which features 12 Women's National Teams for the first time in franchise history. The NCAA informed EA Sports that 13 female student-athletes would risk their eligibility for collegiate athletics by being included in FIFA 16. Quote from EA... Quote:
The following players were removed from FIFA 16 because of the NCAA decision:

**** the NCAA. I hate them so much.

Wow. NCAA does it again. If I'm correct, which I might not be, but isn't a national license separate from a collegiate license, therefore they shouldn't be able to remove their eligibility?

My goodness this seems SO trivial.
The exclusion of the players matters not to me, as it's not something that I would spend any time with--but the point of the matter is just mind blowing. Think, there are people sitting around a table discussing this being an 'issue'. Likely making HUGE money. Can't have these women in the game, but you can go in stores and find college jerseys of prominent players everywhere. How is that any different to putting in 'generic' players into NCAA video games? Just absurd. Side note: I am interested to see where this discussion goes... |

That is garbage. The NCAA just isn't right.

Re: NCAA Forces EA Sports To Remove 13 Women From FIFA 16 Because, Uh, Rules?
lets be honest, the NCAA didn't get paid so the girls can't go in.
that's all this is about, if the NCAA don't get its cut then they ain't playin ball. |
EA should (but they won't) ask them to go pro, and pay for the girls college tuitions. It would be a BIG WIN for EA, PR WISE. It will not happen though, only because EA does NOT want to hurt their relationship with the NCAA.
