Corn Fed

[Papalou]

I see that UNL has ended the contract with Casey Martinez's company.
T.O. found out that Taylor was listed as the owner,sooooo what are the chances that NCAA doesnt come in and bust up shop for us.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

Taylor was the owner?? WTF......

 

[HawkeyeHater]

Slim..........


The NCAA not only looks at the rules, but also what was known and by who......


Taking prompt action- such as cutting off this contract........ will deflect any ncaa penalties......


USC was not penalized for what reggie bush did........

USC was penalized because they didn't do anything about it.....

[HawkeyeHater]

Nebraska issued a news release Wednesday in which Athletic Director Tom Osborne stated that the licensing agreement between the university and Casey Martinez, who owns the Southern California-based apparel company Corn Fed, will end.

Lou was mis-informed... or this article is wrong...

"The licensing relationship with Corn Fed began in the summer of 2007 before our football program had initiated any recruiting contact with Taylor and his family, or had any knowledge of Taylor as a prospective student-athlete," Osborne said.

"Corn Fed is a solid company which has demonstrated success in the apparel business, and has been a licensee not only of Nebraska, but several other schools around the country. There is nothing in the licensing agreement between the two parties that is in any way non-compliant with NCAA rules."

But new questions were raised recently when it was learned that Taylor Martinez is registered as the owner of the Corn Fed trademark and also the CornFed.com domain name, an arrangement that also does not violate NCAA rules.

Athletic director Tom Osborne said in a statement Wednesday that his staff recently learned that Taylor Martinez is registered as owner of the Corn Fed trademark and the CornFed.com website domain name. Osborne said the quarterback has no ownership in the Corn Fed company and that no NCAA rules have been broken.

I may have spoken out of turn here. Taylor is listed as the owner of the corn fed trade mark. I dont know what the diff is but apparently enough interest has been raised that Casey approached the University with the prob.

[Papalou]
