Rick Majerus says new NCAA deregulation of contact rules hurts smaller schools

Matt Minkus — Fri, 22 Jun 2012 08:55:52 +0000

The NCAA made a somewhat interesting decision last week to deregulate how much coaches can contact prospective recruits. The new rule allows coaches to text, call or send messages through social media unlimited amounts of time after the person has completed their sophomore year of high school. On paper, it sounds like a pretty good idea. You also have to wonder if this could be the start of more rules being altered looking forward.

Rick Majerus, St. Louis University head basketball coach, thinks this new measure favors bigger schools. He references (above in the audio clip – full interview at 110SportsPodcast.com) schools like UCLA or Duke being able to capitalize on this more effectively because they have larger staffs and more resources. Also, he believes top recruits may find themselves now inundated with coaches wanting to talk and maximize the time to develop a relationship.

It has been very rare for the NCAA to move in this direction where they have actually deregulated something and at least in many people’s mind made something more simple to follow. Overall, I like the new measure for two reasons: there was no real way to regulate it before and now it is an easier concept to follow for all involved.

There is plenty more they could “deregulate” and simplify, time will only tell if this could be a new trend for the NCAA.

Predicting the U.S. Open champion is never easy; NBC’s Roberts likes Luke Donald

Matt Minkus — Thu, 14 Jun 2012 08:05:24 +0000

The U.S. Open this week at the Olympic Club is sure to bring some drama out come Sunday afternoon. The course reviews so far have been very, very tough but also pretty fair. That should be a good combination. The tougher the conditions, generally the cream will rise to the top by week’s end.

The USGA made an interesting decision when making the pairings this week. Putting together a top all-American threesome in Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson and Bubba Watson and then an all-European group with Luke Donald, Rory Mcilroy and Lee Westwood. If you were to bet on the tournament – putting money on one of those guys would be a good place to start.

Jimmy Roberts from NBC, who will be part of the telecast all week, discussed on 110SportsPodcast.com which threesome had a better opportunity to have a champion come out of the respective groups. “I would say that Luke, the group with Luke Donald. I don’t know why. Somebody’s going to have a week more often than not. People like Tiger have a week; Luke Donald is playing remarkable golf. He’s just so consistent.

“That’s one of the great things about the Open – it means so much and it’s so hard to predict in most cases.”
