Pat Haden and Barry Alvarez Caught Yelling at Refs

[SwampHumpy]

Not at all. It's just how the NCAA does things. I don't think Haden or any other active AD has any business on the playoff committee. I don't think there should be people actively working for a school involved on any committee where there is a potential conflict of interest.

The playoff committee and the COI are 2 such committees.

Just busting you balls. The NCAA is a Confederacy of Douchebaggery.

No doubt.

Admits to getting a text from the sideline during the game, which is against the rules.

her areolas are bigger than the cbs logo behind that idiots head!

and usc should be fine, he should be kicked off the selection committee. the fact that getting a text during the game isn't considered a big deal at USC, since that was the explanation of why his actions were okay, says everything...

Link? I Googled and could only find articles about texting recruits. Even the articles that are already out don't say it's against the rules.

USC Trojans AD Pat Haden confronts officials during game after penalty on coach Steve Sarkisian - ESPN Los Angeles

According to the NCAA rule book, Section 3, Article 11-B: "Only voice communication between the press box and team area is permitted. Where press-box space is not adequate, only voice communication may originate from any area in the stands between the 25-yard lines extended to the top of the stadium. No other communication for coaching purposes is permitted anywhere else."

According to Rogers Redding, the NCAA's National Coordinator of Officials, the only voice communication is allowed in the bench area, and text messaging or faxing is not allowed. Redding told ESPN's Brett McMurphy there is no penalty for breaking the rule.

1) that's me repeating ESPN which could be BS
2) doesn't sound like much of an issue.

Thanks. Kind of funny that it's supposedly a rule, but there's no penalty for breaking it. Gotta love the NCAA.

True, but remember it is the NCAA. So while there may be no punishment, they could still invent one if need be.

Meh

Here's an idiot commenting about it to a girl with huge tits

Wait, how does that make him an idiot, exactly?

It's Brady Quinn...he's an idiot. Even if he didn't say anything in that video, he's still an idiot.

 

[nddulac]

I'm sure the pac-12 will have something to say about it. But holy hell. Since when did Steve Sarkisian become a tattle-tale?

 

[Brasky]

These are your impartial selection committee members folks!

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

At least there's eleven other biased mofo's to cancel these two out with their own biases.

 

[7Samurai13]

yes because coaches and sports writers aren't biased.

 

[Pariah]

It's ridiculous that acting ADs are even considered for this position.

Whirred.

If we're going active, I want Donna Shalala on the panel!

 

[yeodonie]

Yep I'm sure this committee will be just fine ...

 

[fredmccallyRTR]

I wish they'd have elections to pick the committee members, I'd run and would win with a dirty tricks campaign. Auburn would never play for another NC, I guarantee it.

Barry's never claimed he is impartial about the Badgers. Indeed, he'll tell you he is partial. Jeff Long said as much about Arkansas, and I'm sure Luck and Haden would admit biases as well. That's why the system doesn't allow them to have any input on their own teams.

I don't get the problem here.

It's just an image problem that probably won't effect anything a whole lot, like when the pres is on vacation during a crisis.

ADs or people still receiving compensation from their university are recused from voting for their school. Don't you guys worry...
