Universities should decide on eligibility, official savs
WASHINGTON (AP)—J. Neils Thompson, president of the National Collegiate Athletic Association, told Congress yesterday that universities should continue to have the responsibility to declare an emergency and that the NCAA should not have burden.
not havevarned Thompson said that NCAA rules and procedures gave the responsibility to NCAA member schools and that it was clear that the responsibility was one of the fundamental commitments of NCAA membership.
Thompson said the NCAA Council, discussing the issue last month, was opposed to such a change in the NCAA procedures.
proceed with it," he said, "because we believe such a change would totally undercut the foundation upon which the NCAA rests; that is, it is the institution itself which is responsible for policing its own affairs and it is only when that institution fails to do so that NCAA enforcement mechanisms come into play.
"SUCH A FUNDAMENTAL change would, in my judgment, inexorably lead to a 'catch-me-if-you can' attitude on the part of some institutions, coaches and student-athletes. This kind of attitude in turn will lead to the necessity for an even more dramatic expansion in the NCAA enforcement machinery."
Under NCAA rules, once the NCAA infractions committee finds a university
guilty of a violation, it imposes a penalty. If the penalty decrees that an athlete should be declared ineligible, the university must do it.
However, in some cases, universities have refused to do so and were given harsher penalties for not obeying NCAA rules.
Subcommittee Chairman John Moss, D-Calf, said "You're placing a real burden on an institution. They must rely on a decision made and dictated to the institution."
Thompson said, "The institutions asked for it." He had previously testified that rules are approved at the annual NCAA convention.
Moss said, "If they want to commit mayhem, then damn well let them. If the law permits it, then the law is a damn fool."
"Your authority does not give you license against the laws and conventions of this country. You might invite some people at the annual convention to read the Constitution of the United States as well as the constitution of the NCAA."
